My Project

Sadly our classroom paint supply is running low. We would love to continue developing our creative minds in first grade and make sure that we are taking care of our paint supplies so that they will last us for many years to come, just like the ones we have been using!

We are so lucky to have a variety of paint supplies and different options to allow us to let our creativity shine!

My students have gotten to do many art projects this year that have allowed us to display their work for their parents, classmates and school community. My students are very creative and love to let their creativity shine any chance they get.

I would love to be able to give my students lots of opportunities to explore different ways to create art, including paints, paint sticks and dot paint. We have done a variety of projects this year with the supplies we have and when looking ahead to next school year some of our art supplies need to be replaced!
