First Grade Artists Need Materials

My students need paint, brushes, stencils, origami paper, scratch art paper, and four art storage bins.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Romero-Coulter's classroom raised $256

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students need art supplies so I can make art a key part of our classroom explorations in every subject.

I teach a Spanish dual language class.

I have 26 first graders who love to question and learn. In our school, 57% of the students receive free or reduced price meals. My students come from very diverse backgrounds. They love doing art projects and hands on activities.

My Project

I need paint, brushes, stencils, origami paper, scratch art paper, and four art storage bins. I want to integrate arts throughout all of our content areas. For example, we are going to study animal diversity and animal habitats in science. I would like my students to collaborate in groups to create big paper murals of a habitat. They would use tempera and stencils to create animal shapes. In social studies, we are going to study families and communities. They could use the scratch art paper to decorate images of their families that they can share with the rest of the class to explore.

Exposing students to dance, music, theater, and visual arts on a regular basis gives them opportunities to think, learn, and solve problems in a variety of ways by using multiple intelligences.

Not only does art give students with different learning styles more ways to learn and succeed, it also provides students with rich and enjoyable experiences that build critical and creative thinking skills and encourage communication skills.
