My Students

What makes my students special? Students from my school all come from a diverse background of cultures and family lifestyles. This year I'll be teaching Fine Arts Resource for the entire school. Grades Kindergarten to 6th Grade (that's the entire school)! Also, many of my students are English language learners. My students (no matter what background) have the potential to be amazing learners and incredible human beings! Their passion for learning is what makes them special and I'm proud to be their teacher!

Overall, my students throughout the years have shown me how amazing a student could be when they have a love for learning and a drive to reach their goals!

Although my students come from various financial backgrounds. When given the opportunity then they take it and try their best! As stated earlier, I am very proud to be their teacher.

My Project

Aloha! All of the art supplies will be used in my Fine Arts Resource classroom for students in grades Kindergarten to 6th Grade.

Many of our students missed an entire year of creativity and Fine Arts due to the pandemic; the supplies selected will give students hands on learning such as using the clay to create original art and stencils to make inspirational messages to peers.

It's important for our students to reconnect and be creative again. These supplies will help after a long challenging pandemic. The Arts are back!
