My Project

Within our school, us teachers are asked to come up with a club for students to attend during their recess period after they eat lunch. From the beginning of the year, my students have displayed such creativity. Not only are they showing it through the words they write but also in the pictures they draw. In their spare time, many students have displayed an interest in the arts whether it is drawing, jewelry making, etc. This inspired me to start the Arts & Crafts club for this year.

These materials and supplies I am requesting are going to allow the students to explore different types of crafts where they can hopefully foster a hidden talent or a new hobby.

With your help, my students will have the opportunity to embrace their creativity.
