My students need art and music supplies such as watercolors, instruments and puppets.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Beaulieu's classroom raised $299

This project is fully funded

My Students

The students in my class are excited and eager to learn. My students are joyful, energetic, creative and always so much fun to be around! They come from a variety of backgrounds and have a wide range of educational experiences. Most of my students come from low-income homes where they have had limited exposure to reading. Some students have experienced some form of previous education while others do not know how to hold a book.

All of my students are capable of growing and learning inside the classroom.

My students have so much to learn whether they need to learn how to tie their shoes, letter sounds, adding or writing. My students have the potential to do amazing things and I loving being able to help them grow.

My Project

The school my students attend is a A+ creative arts magnet and my goal is to cultivate students' academic and personal potential through arts-fused learning centered on exploration, innovation, creativity, and empowerment. In order to do this, my students will need the necessary tools. First, they will need watercolor supplies such as paint, brushes and watercolor paper. Providing my students with watercolor supplies takes them a step farther in cultivating their academic and personal potential through art. Students will be able to express their ideas through their watercolor skills in all areas of study. My students will also benefit from musical instruments that will be used for expression and rhythm alongside practicing their math and literacy skills. My students will also benefit from the puppets where they will interact with other students and collaborate to tell a story.

With these materials, my students will be able to show their knowledge of math, literacy, social studies, science and art skills through art-fused activities and lessons.

These materials and resources will provide so many opportunities for my students to explore and investigate their own learning. They will help my students grow and learn in a whole new way through art-fused learning!
