My Project

Aloha! My students call me Ms. K! I teach 6th through 8th graders and although I am their teacher, I learn so much from them every day. My students deserve the very best, and with these materials I will be able to provide fun and engaging activities and lessons. As an art educator, I prioritize nurturing an environment that is welcoming, safe, and inclusive for anyone that steps foot inside. The art room at my school serves a wide variety of students from a diverse set of backgrounds when it comes to art education. I plan to give every student the opportunity to learn, grow, and express themselves through art with the requested items!
