Beat the Florida Heat: Art for Indoor Recess

Help me give my students seating and art supplies for a classroom art area which will be used when the Florida heat index is too high for them to play outside during our daily recess time.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Heim's classroom raised $231

My Project

I hope to set up a classroom art area for my students where they can express their creativity indoors on days where the Florida heat index prohibits outdoor recess time.

In Florida schools, at the beginning and end of the school year it is often too hot for students to go outside and play during recess time.

I would like to be able to provide my students with seating and art supplies that they will look forward to using on days when they are prohibited from going outside due to the excessive Florida heat.
