Communication Through Art

Help me give my students art supplies including quality paper and markers so they can learn to communicate with art and writing to express their ideas during their counseling sessions. I have some outstanding artists at my school.

My Project

My students with autism need creative ways to communicate and many of them are very talented at expressing what they feel and learn via making art. What better way to support their learning then through purchasing quality paper and markers for them to practice their writing and drawing skills!

Art gets my students into a thoughtful creative flow that brings out their best talents and makes them desire to be in school.

Once they start creating an art project they forget about the hardships they have at home or in their other high school classes.
