My Project

Please help support my project by giving my Preschool students the opportunity to express themselves using a variety of arts and crafts materials.

Continuing to give my students the opportunity to express themselves using inclusive and creative materials that they need for them to enjoy the art area in their classroom is something that I want to help provide for them.

I added several materials, such as the Lakeshore People Shapes to create themselves, their friends or their family. I also will be using several of these materials such as colored tape to practice and continue practicing their fine motor skills.

I will also be using the sensory seats to help them focus their artistic energies while moving their bodies in the seats while listening to music.

Any help, no matter how much will help make my students more artistic than ever!! Thank you so much!
