My students need basic drawing supplies-markers, colored pencils, pencils, and crayons. The role of drawing in education remains critical, and not just to the creative disciplines in art and design for which it is foundational. Drawing plays a big role in our cognitive development. It can help us learn to write and think creatively, develop hand-eye coordination, hone analytic skills, and conceptualize ideas. In my classroom, drawing is used as a tool for learning. In literacy, I use drawing as a tool to communicate or extend the understanding of a child’s knowledge about a book or text. As a student draws a response to a story, I can not only observe their comprehension of the story, but also how and why a response. Students are able to make their reading and thinking process visible, and artwork provide valuable information about his/her level of understanding. Please help my students get the basic drawing supplies so they can continue to let their creative juices flow.
