My Students

My students are excited about art! I teach K-5 art at a Title I school in North Carolina. My students are eager to create and learn. I cannot emphasize enough how important art is for my students during this pandemic. Art allows students to express themselves and cope with what they are going through. My class is providing them with a tangible way to process the world around them.

My students' excitement about art is contagious and pushes me to do my best despite the difficult circumstances of our school year!

My Project

These supplies will be used regularly in our art room! Some of the supplies will replace items we have run out of and other supplies are needed for our expanding art studio! For example, in our recently opened 3D Center, older elementary students who are working with cardboard will eventually have the opportunity to use a hot glue gun to secure their pieces. The Gelli plate will be a great new addition to the Printmaking Center. The left-handed scissors will be used by my students who are currently struggling with the right-handed scissors! All of these supplies help our art room to run successfully.
