Art Supplies To Boost Creativity!

My students need watercolor paper and modeling clay to develop creativity and self-discovery.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Lee's classroom raised $396

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

Due to cuts in funding, once again, our students won't benefit from any art program . How can I boost their creativity and improve their visualization skills without any supplies?

Usually African American students make up 70% of my class; the rest includes a rich diversity of cultures such as Latino and Asian.

Since we are a Social Justice Magnet School, we are teaching respect, tolerance, appreciation, and teamwork. Our students are aware of the issues awaiting them and they are getting ready! Unfortunately, my school is a title I LAUSD without extra funding as most of our parents can't afford donations.

My Project

With Crayola modeling clay, students will build and draw different shapes in order to make connection between the 2D and 3D renditions of the same object. They will also create different buildings and study them from various perspectives. They will paint each side a different color so they can distinguish them easily; thereafter, they'll draw their creation from different point-of-views. My students also need watercolor paper to boost their creativity and risk taking, With large sheets of paper, students could explore and dig deeper into their mind and with the small sized paper, they could practice techniques. Their creativity won't be constrained to the traditional 8.5 by 11" format they face everyday. Thanks to your donation, they could cover the large sheets with rolling hills or thundering skies. Let them free! Let them surpass their limits!

These supplies would not only develop students' imagination and critical thinking, they would guide them on the path of self-discovery.

Your donation would surely bring joy to the class, but most importantly, it would support the education of potential artists and engineers. Thank you for being an agent of change!
