My Project

As educators, we have worked so hard to lessen the gap that has been created by this pandemic, distance learning, and quarantining. It’s no secret that creativity and the arts help with children’s well-rounded development. My students need a chance to break away from of a rigid routine and be creative!

I would like to give my students the chance to paint on canvas, like real artists, and express themselves using a variety of new and different materials.

I want to emphasize the process of creativity and not just the finished art project; allowing students independence and control. . .so important after two years of feeling like they have so few choices.

Grades 3-5
