Have a Heart for ART!

Help me give my students the opportunity to express themselves through art! A drying rack will provide a place to store projects rather than using the bookshelves. Sharpies and skin-tone colored crayons will allow them to celebrate diversity.

My Students

My class is comprised of an amazing group of individuals! I have a myriad of different learners, including resource students, reclassified second language learners, and gifted students. They are a group of smart young minds who try hard and aim to succeed! Over half of my students are from a low socioeconomic status and are part of the free lunch program.

These kids are energetic, aspiring, and have voracious appetites for modern learning.

These adorable darlings are constantly making connections with each other and our school. I already have this personal link because I am a former Vintage student. In fact, I'm now teaching in the same first grade room that I attended as a first grader. Talk about full circle, the investment in Vintage is strong!

My Project

Art is part of our daily learning in class, from large scale painting projects to smaller journal drawings and more. Students use art to express their ideas and show their understanding. It's integrated into all subject areas.

Art is essential in our class because it builds creativity and confidence and improves collaboration and critical thinking skills.

It also builds awareness, as students can learn about diversity and become more informed about different cultures. Thus, the students will use the skin-colored crayons and pencils to illustrate the diversity addressed in our literature and displayed in our classroom and community.

The drying rack will be an amazing space saver when completing paintings and crafts! It will save us from putting wet projects on bookcases, mailboxes, and closets. In addition, the paints and markers will be put to use when my students create individual life story books with original illustrations.
