My Project
In our kindergarten classroom, creativity is more than just colorful drawings—it's how students express themselves, process emotions, and connect with the world around them. I’m requesting a Childcraft Art Easel Center with Dry Erase Panels to provide my students with a dedicated space to explore their imaginations, work collaboratively, and embrace the joy of artistic expression.
Art is a powerful tool for young children.
It supports fine motor development, encourages problem-solving, and nurtures confidence. Most importantly, it gives every child a voice—especially those who may not yet have the words to express their thoughts or feelings. With this easel, students will have daily opportunities to paint, draw, and create side-by-side, practicing important social-emotional skills like turn-taking, collaboration, and respectful sharing of space and materials.
This two-person easel allows for both independent creativity and shared experiences. Whether they’re drawing scenes from a story, painting how they feel, or simply experimenting with colors, my students will be engaging in meaningful, hands-on learning.
Our current art area is limited, and having this new easel center will transform how we approach art in our classroom. It will give students a sense of importance and pride, showing them that their creativity matters. By supporting this project, you’re helping young learners build confidence, develop self-expression, and discover the joy of creating something uniquely their own.
