I am a teacher in a school for students with severe mental challenges. I see that my students are faced with many obstacles both in and outside of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide them with creative and meaningful learning experiences that are age appropriate. My students are creative, clever, and very spontaneous. They like to move and love lots of positive attention.
There are things that may prevent my students from getting ahead early in life and may not provide them with the life experiences many of us see as "typical." From the minute they walk in the door of my classroom, I focus on their potential and growth while they are with me.
By doing this in a creative and positive way, I am hoping to inspire even our earliest learners to continue on a path of academic excellence.
My Project
An Art Room goes through a lot of glue. We used the last of our supply and are in desperate need of a restock. Our old bottles had been refilled and the old glue has been dug out of the tops so many times that they started to leak. We need to be able to stick paper together again.
School glue is a staple in any art program and my students are in dire need.
In order to create any 3-dimensional project, we need to be able to stick pieces together. By donating to my project, you will be helping us learn about form.
