Support Creative Children

Help me give my students art supplies like paint, charcoal and watercolor paper. We need art supplies to create dioramas displaying scenes from our writings. We also use supplies each day in choice time.

My Students

My class is comprised of creative students from all different cultural backgrounds. Some of my students are new to the USA and about half of them are English Language Learners. Most of my students speak languages other than English in the home and almost all of their families are immigrants.

My school is a Title I school, serving a low income population in Brooklyn, New York.

My goal with DonorsChoose.org is to gain access to materials that my school would be unable to order otherwise.

My Project

My students enjoy creating works of art. Many of them cannot communicate with one another but through works of art, they often can share their thoughts.

One huge goal I have is to bring my class together as a community through art, trying out new mediums during choice time that they do not get to do during the 1 hour of art instruction they have per week.

I would like for my students to create murals, dioramas for presentations, as well as crafts.

Some of them have asked for beads, paint supplies, and other art supplies that they enjoy using. They have basic supplies like markers, glue, and scissors. I would like to give them a deeper sense of creativity through the introduction of mediums like charcoal, dot paints, and beading.
