Mrs. McIntyre-Jones from Charlotte NC is requesting art supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Art is Essential for Early Learning!

Help me give my students Cricut pens, and cutting mats, for the opportunity to showcase their finished art work with elegant designs to use when displaying.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My students are some of the most deserving of all of the earth! These scholars are impoverished and their families have experienced many hardships during the early years of their short lives. Nonetheless, these children are quite resilient and incredibly tenacious little learners.

I consider my classroom of scholars, a nice little melting pot.

Within this group of students are African Americans, Europeans, Latinos, Vietnamese, Indian, and Sudanese. We are thoroughly enjoying this diversity within our classroom of future leaders!

My Project

With these items, my students and I will have the opportunity to utilize a plethora of designs to showcase their finished products. We are awaiting a Cricut Machine that will allow us the flexibility to explore and create masterpieces. Students at this age are incredibly excited about their work and desires for others to learn and share in their creative experience. In addition, the parents of students in this age group tend to preserve the students' artwork for years to come. Hopefully, the implementation of such materials will be essential in the vitality of the students' time and hard work.
