Let's Get Creative!

Help me give my students some clay, modeling tools, and mats to create 3D art projects for the first time! And an HP color printer for the art room which the program never had!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Cardinali's classroom raised $933

My Project

My art students will love creating 3D sculptures out of modeling clay using the tools to help sculpt details and use the messy mats to help keep their art messes to a minimum.

My students haven't learned how to use clay before and I think it would be extremely exciting for them.

I would like for them to learn how to sculpt mini winter animals and possibly snowmen, and then paint them after they dry. I would like to display their sculptures in the school glass cases for the community to enjoy.

Also, my classes could really use a color printer because in all my years of teaching art, my art room has never had one, which would be extremely helpful to students for learning about art with colored visual aids, and color theory examples for visual purposes.
