My Project

You'll notice that there is a jumble of materials in this project because it is a collection of several potential projects that will be completed by the end of the school year and the beginning of next year.

Some fun new materials you'll note are the construction crayons for the little kids to have more options in drawing materials.

The Gelli plates will be utilized alongside the acrylic paint and brayers to bring printmaking into the Middle School classroom.

These materials will mean the world to my students and enable them to explore their artistic talents beyond what I can provide them now. I'm also included tie dye in this grouping of items because all kids deserve to have fun at the end of the school year! Thank you for considering funding my projects. I can't wait to share the results with you!

Ms. M. Felker
Grades 6-8
