Classroom Drying Rack for Mini Masterpieces!

Help me give my students a place to dry their masterpieces, instead of having to carry wet paintings back to class with them, potentially getting their things covered in paint they can rest their pieces on the rack.

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 Students

I am the art teacher for every student grade k-8th and I am trying to bring a wide variety of projects to the table that include creativity, reading and world studies. My students have often not done anything in art class but some simple drawing and some coloring sheets, especially with the recent year online I am really hoping to get their hands in engaging materials and widen their worlds in art.

We are a Title I school that strives to provide an excellent learning environment and bright opportunities for our students.

We are a part of a small (but growing!) school that celebrates inclusion, diversity and community. Everyone always says that we are a family at this school, we all do our best to jump in to help in other areas when needed and help all our fellow teachers.

My Project

We have no space to put wet paintings besides the table that they need to use to create! A drying rack would get those wet paintings up and out of the way. It would also keep all the masterpieces organized that way nothing gets stuck together or accidentally thrown away during clean up time. This is a very much needed organizational tool for my classroom. With so many students it is easy Putting their pieces on the drying rack to keep them safe will also teach my students to value and protect their amazing artwork!
