Art and Music Fun

Help me give my students a variety of items with which to do art and music.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Christner's classroom raised $303

My Project

My Kindergarten students light up my days! They are inquisitive, bright, funny, and creative. They like to work on their iPads, listen to and make music, and create art projects in class.

The items in this request will be used to store open-ended centers, create art and music in the classroom, and charge our class iPads.

While we have some construction paper in our building, the larger size of 12 x 18 is hard to come by. Often we like to do projects for bulletin boards and collages that take a larger size of paper, so we will use these colors for those projects. The craft sticks will be used in a variety of math games and art projects also.

We are in desperate need of the CD player as the one we have is rather old and skips our CDs so we had to stop using it. The students would love to be able to play our music again soon.

Every student in our class has an iPad, unfortunately they do not come back to school charged each day. The charging station is needed so that we can charge them in school so when we are ready to log in to our programs they are ready to go!
