My Project

These items will be resources the students can use for years to come. All K-5 students will be able to experience the various art materials, manipulatives, and SEL items in the art classroom. For example I would like to add the stem building manipulatives to my centers as a choice when students finish early with their art project. The can use the new items to build, and create which complements their standard of Creating and making their artistic visions and creativity come to life. The weighted toys will also be a nice addition to the classroom and is an SEL toy that is a huge hit at our school, we would greatly like to see more of these in our art room.
