As a teacher in a Title I school in Alaska, I see students being faced with challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite these challenges, my goal is to keep the classroom atmosphere positive and inspired and to provide students with meaningful learning experiences.
My students are creative, motivated, and love to learn.
They like to read, write, and draw about their lives and interests. They love positive attention. Many of them receive a free lunch based on their socioeconomic status. All of them are remarkable individuals.
When the children walk in the door of my classroom, they are met with a handshake, a smile, and a positive comment to welcome them to a fantastic day of school. I focus on their potential, interests, and growth. Every one of them wants to learn, and I can help facilitate the best day of learning possible.
My Project
Art is a daily activity in our class. We create art for the love of art, and also in conjunction with social studies, science, and every other academic subject. When students get a chance to use high quality materials like the Blick Liquid Watercolors, Bee Paper Aquabee Watercolor Paper, and Scratch Art Paper, it helps give their artwork that extra oomph that really makes a difference! Artwork helps make every topic of study even more interesting and engaging.
My students want to explore, experiment, and create.
By donating to our project, you will be helping children meet creative challenges in art, and every other academic subject, using high quality art supplies.
With budget cuts in our schools, we are often not able to order art supplies - especially not special, high quality supplies. These fantastic art supplies will help motivate and inspire children to create and to further their learning in so many areas!
DonorsChoose is the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.
