My Project

There are a lot of students who are eager to go to school but lack school materials. These materials, such as the copy paper, construction paper, erasers, and more will help my first-grade students bring out their creativity and artistic skills. I could also use these to make our classroom more colorful and child friendly.

My goal is to provide access to quality art materials for my first grade students, I would like them to explore their creativity, enhance learning through visual expression, and support their emotional and cognitive development through arts.

My students are resilient and show a lot of potential. What truly sets them apart is their ability to find joy in small things, their eagerness to express themselves and the way they support and encourage each other.

My students remind me that talent is not limited by circumstance, and with the tight supports, they are capable of transformative growth- both personally and creatively.
