Mr. I from Providence RI is requesting art supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Learning Through Creative Competencies

Help me give my students the supplies to explore skills related to painting, printmaking, collage and mosaics. I plan to use art to engage students in all academic subjects while building their creative expression and abilities.

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

Help me give my students the supplies needed to explore skills related to creative competencies such as painting, printmaking, collage (using requested materials such as felt sheets, colored media paper, googly eyes, self-adhesive shapes, construction paper) and mosaics (tiles and glue).

My class will use art to engage students in academic subjects such as ELA, by exploring literary texts and responding to them through art-related projects, and geometry, by identifying and using shapes for mosaics, collages or printmaking.

Along with developmental abilities for creative expression, which benefit my students by engaging them in multiple sensory ways, and sequencing skills, needed to build important abilities in so many adult daily living skills (think travel or cooking), my students will develop an interest and understanding of art and its significance in their lives.

Our school has recently undergone a content redesign with an art-related focus. I plan for my classroom to increase its art-inspired activities and lessons in addition to viewing all our learning through an art lens. The hope is to bring essential art awareness to my students in addition to an inspiring engagement in learning through art activities. This will benefit my students in multiple ways including academically, personally and intellectually.

Grades 9-12
