Art and Collaboration in Kindergarten!

My students need a loom and yarn.

My Students

Do you remember making potholders with a small loom when you were a child? I do, and I remember wishing I could make bigger projects and wishing the limitations of my small loom weren't there. You can provide students with a unique, empowering opportunity to create works of art with classmates.

I teach kindergarten students in the Tampa Bay area in Florida.

There is a lot of diversity in my classroom. Some students have had rich artistic experiences since they were very small, while other students in my classroom have had very little opportunity to explore their creative side.

My Project

I feel that as the culture of education has shifted, art and creativity is not being valued and encouraged as much as it was when I was a child. I want to provide my students with the daily opportunity to explore their creative side, and do so collaboratively. If we had a loom and yarn in our classroom, my students would be able to explore their creative side more freely and playfully. What an awesome experience for them to create something beautiful AND useful!

This will provide students with valuable experience in working together to create something beautiful and artistic.

It will also help students develop their fine motor skills, which are lacking these days with the popularity of computers and video games. Your help could give students a unique opportunity to learn and grow in so many ways!
