My Project

There is no better sound in the classroom than that of industrious children hard at work bringing their thoughts and creative ideas to life on the page! The art supplies requested for this project are intended to spark and ignite the creativity and imaginations of my first grade students. Colorful markers, bold paper choices, novelty construction paper crayons, tissue paper squares and lots of glue will provide for hours of creative expression, that is sure to be accompanied by peals of laughter and playful conversation amongst children. With shrinking budgets and increased costs for supplies, your support will go a long way in providing my first graders with the art supplies that will make their little hearts sing a joyful song!
