My Project

I love watching my student's creativity grow and this project will give them the opportunity to not only express themselves creatively but to also share meaningful memories with their mothers. Now that we are back to in-person learning and have the ability to invite parents into our school, this will be a very special and meaningful opportunity. All of these materials will be used to put the biggest smiles on both my students and their mother's faces. These materials will allow us all to complete a step-by-step painting and craft project. All of the supplies are a crucial part of this activity to take place.

Anyone can make art, and there are so many different art forms, which help students with disabilities gain independence, confidence, and self-esteem.

Having these materials in order to complete this activity, will showcase all of their talents, creativity, and uniqueness. Being that I teach 9 amazing students with a wide variety of disabilities, art allows them to be themselves and be free. Art promotes freedom of creative expression, which helps students to relax and think differently.
