Cozy Carpet Learning

Help me give my students a comfortable place to sit and learn about art.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Cristofaro's classroom raised $969

This project is fully funded

My Project

Let's learn about art and then create! Please help my students have a cozy place to learn before heading back to their desks to be creative. Through your help we can create a focused area for them to learn about the elements of art, important artists in history, and receive their instructions on the daily project!

Here at our elementary school our students are enjoying learning about the arts!

They have music, drama and visual art! The carpet donated will provide them with the extra comfort to become successful learners and artists. The resources from TPT will provide my students practice, activities and projects to support their learning.
