I am a Kindergarten teacher. This is the first year I am teaching Kindergarten. I want my students to do a lot of art projects, but it is hard when a lot of the supplies are costly. I would like foam letters, mosaic pieces, buttons, craft sticks glitter, wiggly eyes and other arts and crafts supplies to use for my projects. I intend to use the construction paper for making shape collages, animals and flowers for the spring. I also intend to use the supplies to decorate different activities such as puppets, masks and sea creatures. It is so much fun to make projects for the holidays. I would love to make hearts for Valentine's Day, shamrocks for St. Patrick's day, and flags for flag day. I also want to create projects for the seasons. In fall we can make trees with leaves falling to the ground, in winter we can make snowmen, and spring we can make kites. Thank you so much for reading my proposal.
