Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

I am requesting art supplies including hot glue sticks, paints, markers, and canvases for my special education classroom.

The students in my classroom adore art.

Despite difficulties with reading, writing, and math, I have seen them come alive in their learning when their assignments are presented in a creative light. From poster projects, to rock painting I love watching their joy through creativity. As the year goes on, glue sticks and markers dry out, and supplies begin to dwindle. We would love to have these supplies replenished so our end of the year projects can shine!
