Building Groups in Art Class

Help me give my students materials for their centers in the art classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Schmitz's classroom raised $432

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students have enjoyed working in small groups in the art room. By doing this, their artwork has improved since I am working with a smaller group. During this time the other students are working at centers that go along with our lesson. For this reason having more activities to foster art, imagination, fine motor skills, etc. can come in handy.

The goals for this project is to provide students with different materials or items to foster imaginations.

The mosaic activity will help those students who need inspiration have it, but the students who are ready to create their own, will be able to do that. The Picasso face will allow students to learn about Picasso and create their own face and draw it.

The students at my school are always willing to learn new things. They are wanting to learn as much about art as possible. It can be hard to keep up with their ideas and hopefully these items will help me in keeping up with them.
