My Students

We attend a kindergarten center that is located in a rural area with high poverty. We LOVE hands-on, interactive, kinesthetic learning activities. We are always on the move and there isn't much time for slowing down around here. In our kindergarten classroom, it is a great time in life for students to start learning about how to be autonomous! Learning new skills in all areas of life and growing is what we do best.

My Project

Due to Covid-19 this year students have been very limited with what materials they can use during their Art pullouts. Students have always loved using paints and especially watercolors. I love seeing the way their faces light up when they create magical artworks or learn how to mix colors for the first time. Sadly due to safety paints have been excluded from Art this year.

I don't want my students to miss out on painting just because of Covid-19, that is why I am asking for students to have their very own watercolors!

I'm am going to incorporate an extra art portion into my lessons inside the classroom this year. We would use our watercolors to create artwork that goes along with our science lessons.

Here are some examples of how we would use these materials. During our Weather Unit, students could use their watercolors to create a BEAUTIFUL WEATHER LANDSCAPES. During our Mammal portion students could paint AMAZING ANIMAL ART! By including art into our regular science lesson, it will create a long lasting impression on my students and they will create a new love of learning!
