Expressing Oneself Through Art
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. E's classroom raised $332
This project is fully funded
My Project
The art supplies will be used so used students have time to calm down from whatever has upset them. Art therapy will give students a chance to express themselves without having to directly talk to someone when they are not ready to have a conversation.
As time goes by, I can interact with the student and break that barrier to help make the student's day brighter.
My school has a high percentage of low poverty. A calming environment is critical to a child having a successful day at school and even after school hours.
This classroom project was brought to life by The Dalio Family
and 4 other donors.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
