My Project
My students love experimenting with how different materials interact with each other. It pushes their creativity to new heights and improves their critical thinking skills. Having a variety of tools gives students an array of options to create their work and find the right tools that they need.
This project will allow students to experience using the camera lucida for observational drawing and experiment with different materials and provide basic supplies like paper and erasers.
By giving my students more media and techniques to experiment with, they can grow even more as artists! This will replenish our supplies and allow new options for students to express themselves.
More than half of 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
