Help me give my students the hands-on experience of creating with clay.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Markee's classroom raised $363
This project is fully funded
My Project
Our school does not have enough supplies for all grades to experience the craft of building with clay. I am choosing the lower grade students because they are eager and display a great passion for tactile and hands-on experiences in art.
I would love the children to experience the magic of clay, the process of building with a material and seeing their pieces come to life in a three-dimensional form!
The students will be very excited to share their creations with their families and loved ones!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
