Some of my students have never had the opportunity to work with paint or clay! I want to give them that experience to work with a new material that will enhance their learning and engage them in my art room! These materials will build students knowledge, help their fine motor skills, and challenge them to think critically about their work. My class aims to provide students with authentic experiences of learning, socialization, community, and fun. Art is able to give all of these to my students, but it is difficult to keep students attention when we have a lack of supplies. Bottles of paint, chalk pastels, and clay will all grab students interest by giving them more exciting art experiences in the classroom and letting them explore more creative ways of expressing their thoughts and ideas. My students have asked me if they are able to work with clay and paint more often. Your donations will make that a reality for them!
