Inspiring Creativity with Coloring Supplies

Help me give my students the coloring supplies they need to bring their creativity to life!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Katy's classroom raised $280

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students are a creative and curious group who thrive when they can express themselves through art. Many of them come from diverse backgrounds and face daily challenges, but their enthusiasm for learning inspires me every day. The coloring supplies I am requesting will make a tremendous difference in their learning. These tools will allow my students to explore their creativity, reinforce concepts in subjects like math and science, and engage in social-emotional activities like collaborative art projects. Hands-on, colorful activities keep students focused and motivated, making learning more interactive and enjoyable.

My goal for this project is to provide my students with the resources they need to unleash their creativity while building critical thinking and fine motor skills.

These supplies will also give them a way to relieve stress and develop confidence as they see their artistic abilities grow.

Your support of this project will help me continue fostering a love for learning while empowering my students to express their individuality. Thank you for considering our classroom and helping to bring our creative visions to life!
