My Project

What makes my students special is that I get an opportunity to work with many students that attend our school. My school offers students an opportunity to choose different exploratory classes each trimester. they get to choose from 13 different art bases classes, from music, media, acting/drama, and art. I will offer students in first through sixth grade the opportunity to try different art techniques and activities using different art mediums, as well as different paper. Funding this project will help me to give the students that chose this class the chance to experience art with different textures and paper.
