Learning to Get Creative With My Hands By Reading!
Help me give my students books so they can learn how to get creative with their hands and make beautiful art!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Evans's classroom raised $301
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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 kiddos love to get creative!
What better way to learn to get creative than teaching them Origami, how to mold clay and how to make cool buttons than with a colorful step by step book?
Our kids love art in our school! We have done lot's of projects such and painting on canvas, making magnets and drawing their favorite Keith Haring Characters. We are ready to move on to using our hands a whole lot more! What better way to do that than with clay and Origami? The kiddos are going to love to learn how to make Origami animals and shapes, step by step, using the cool books!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
