My Students
My students come from many different cultural backgrounds, and most are living in low income households. They are eager learners with high spirits and love the arts. Many kids have several siblings, cousins and grandparents that reside in the same home.
I teach kindergarten, second, fourth and seventh graders.
Each grade level has its own needs and topics to be covered for students to progress and move on to the next grade level. Our district does not have a large budget at all. Usually we receive enough funding to purchase some crayons and markers and a small amount of paper. Our kids go through these supplies quickly, and we often rely on donations and local organizations to help us meet their needs.
With your help, it is my hope that their art classroom can be filled with new materials for them to explore, exciting supplies and images to look at, and wonderful experiences that will make an impression on them. This is their only chance to establish a love for art, as it is no longer mandatory after they leave elementary school. Help spread the love!
My Project
This model magic will be used by Kindergarten, Second grade, Fourth grade and Seventh. During our sculpture units we create coil pots, pinch pot fish sculptures, forms and shapes. We also use the primary colored model magic to mix our secondary colors as an introduction to color theory in the younger grades.
Having clay in our room will excite the students and get them motivated to learn the techniques and vocabulary related to various art projects.
It will further their education through the arts. having something to hold and take home is a great treat for young artists. Help us to enrich our art curriculum!
