My students need art supplies such as markers, crayons, pencils, glue, scissors, construction paper, journal paper, Play-Doh, and white boards with markers to be creative.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Frullo's classroom raised $960

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
“Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up”- Pablo Picasso
Imagine walking out of your house with out breakfast but coming to a classroom with breakfast.
Students come to school to feel at home. My students live in a low income city where they all receive free breakfast and lunch.
My students are full of possibility and potential, but sometimes unlocking their potential is the hard part. Each one of my 1st grade students has a different style of learning that I work with. Sometimes this means sitting under a desk playing Darth Vader so my student succeed at a test. Other students need to stand to take a test or do a few laps around the class before I can start my lesson.
In our classroom we have stickers and fun, not just tests and work. I try to keep the class fun even when supplies are at a minimum.
My Project
I want to empower my students through art. I want them to be creative children before anything else. For me it is getting them to express themselves any way they can. To do this, I need art supplies. I would like to introduce personal white boards and a class white board along with markers so students can all have a chance to answer the question correctly at their seats before raising their hands to answer.
Construction paper, scissors, markers, crayons, pencils, glue and playdoh will be available for students to be creative and artsy with their work in an effort to have students express themselves better. I want to pull the true potential from the students and give them the opportunity to explore adding details and multiple endings during writing prompts.
Bringing art back in the classroom will bring my students out of their shells and help me connect with them on a level that is indescribable even to me.
If students can create their own works they will be able to write about them using new words much easier on their journal paper.
I like to have a choice enabled classroom not a punitive one. If the student needs to have some time to empower themselves through art before returning to "classwork" I want to have the materials available.
More than half of students from low‑income households
