My Project

My students are different every year. Some years they are all about blocks or dramatic play. Then some years I luck up with the creative kiddos that LOVE art. This is the year.

I have multiple students that spend all their free time creating masterpieces.

I have students that come in the door with a plan and I do everything I can to make sure they have what they need. We are beginning to run low on paint and construction paper and it would be great if I could keep making sure I can keep their creativeness going. When they want a bird eating watermelon, I want to be able to supply that red and green paper they requested, or the blue paper to make an ocean with dolphins and turtles in it.
