My Project

These art supplies will provide my students an opportunity to explore, create, and express themselves in a meaningful way. Art helps students emotionally and academically. This is especially important for students post COVID. Most of my students don’t have access to any art supplies at home so they get so excited when they get opportunities to work with different art mediums. It’s so important that they have different art mediums to learn with so that every child can find one that they really enjoy and feel confident creating with. It helps my students build needed self esteem and confidence in creating something that is unique to them. My art room is a community where students share ideas and create together building important social skills. Art is a powerful way to regulate emotions and build esteem and confidence. These art supplies will give my students the amazing opportunity to grow and expand their creativity while building confidence and well being.
