Young children love to learn. They learn best when they have a hands-on project that they can dive into. They like to get messy, explore, and make visuals that go with the things they are learning.
In our classroom, we love doing just that!
We study so many different topics and the students soak in all the information. They have questions, ideas, and new learning that they love to share with others. They can share the information through writing, talking, and creating all the things they are learning about. They can paint a butterfly, draw a praying mantis, make a habitat for a zoo animal, or paint their favorite character from a book, the ideas are endless.
The supplies in this project will allow my students to do just that. In the classroom, we are not given a lot of money for art supplies. This project will ensure that my students have the supplies that they need to jump in and create!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
