Mrs. Harriett Byrd from Washington DC is requesting art supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Aspiring Artist Every day! Students Need Art Supplies to Enhance Creativity.

Help me give my students the needed Crayola Washable Paints, play dough, and cleaning materials to finish out the school year. These items will help students maximize their creativity skills and social development while learning through play.

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

My students are a great bunch of Pre K4 students. They like to explore different sensory materials and showcase their drawings and paintings. They have a thirst for learning and have fun through play. The materials will help replenish our play dough and paint supplies. With budget restraints its difficult to keep these items because the students love playing with them. I want them to have what they need to finish the school year out strong.

My goal is for my students to continue to learn through explorative play and creativity and be able to share what they have learned with their friends and family.
