My Project

The classroom sets of markers I'm requesting through Donors Choose will make a significant impact on my students' learning at Algonquin Road Elementary School. With a limited art budget, it’s challenging to provide enough supplies for our 200 students, which can hinder their ability to fully explore and express their creativity. These markers will be used for various art projects, enabling students to experiment with different techniques, colors, and styles. Having ample and high-quality supplies ensures that every student has the opportunity to engage in meaningful artistic experiences, fostering their imagination and fine motor skills.

My goal for this project is to create an inclusive and vibrant art environment where every student feels empowered to express themselves creatively.

These markers will not only support the completion of planned art projects but also allow students to develop a love for art and confidence in their abilities. My students are special because they come from diverse backgrounds and bring unique perspectives to the art room. Despite the challenges of limited resources, they are eager to learn, create, and share their ideas with the world. With your support, we can ensure that every student at Algonquin Road Elementary has the tools they need to thrive in art class.
