My Project

These watercolor pencils and watercolor paints will be used by my students to enhance our current reading curriculum and to meet our art standards. In our grade level, we no longer have an "art" specialist, so I am in charge of infusing art into our everyday activities and lessons.

I work at a Title 1 school and my students don't all have access to art supplies or projects at home.

These few supplies will allow them to express their creativity and allow for more fun in our days. I have added art trays and a mailbox type organizer for students to use for their artwork to dry in a safe place. We don't have space in my classroom currently to keep art projects safe and organized throughout the day.

I appreciate you taking the time to read about my students and our current needs. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.

Mrs. Shannon
Grades 3-5
