My Project

My student love art. They love to come in and create all sorts of things. I wish to provide them with as much experience to mediums as possible.

I love how my students say Art class is their highlight of the day because they get to relax.

These materials will help my students keep their Art program hands-on with materials such new clay tools, Markers, drawing pencils, blending stumps, and storage containers for all our new supplies!

Every week we start a new project and every week I get the same exciting reaction from all my classes. My students will keep learning how great their imagination is and how artistic they are even if they do not know how to draw or paint.
