My Students

My students are from a low income, rural school. My students need supplies for my art classroom in order to complete projects. My class allows for students to show their creative side by allowing students to choose their own designs for projects. My students create projects from clay to sculptures. This is a new class that we are providing students with a unique way to express themselves. It is important to gain these materials for students so that my class can do more projects that interest them.

My Project

As an art teacher it is very important for me to give my students an educational experience across all mediums of art. Having these materials will assist me in accomplishing this goal. Drawing is a skill that any young artist can learn and even master. It is my job to do all I can do to supply my students with the necessary tools needed in the classroom.

Having drawing pencils, color pencils, charcoal and other necessary supplies, will greatly assist me as I guide my students in my art classroom.

Drawing can be made interesting and fun with a little guidance and the correct set of tools.
