My students thrive when given opportunities to create hands-on, interdisciplinary projects. A toaster oven, Shrinky Dinks film, canvas boards, and a white craft paper roll will encourage creativity and exploration. These materials will allow students to explore concepts like heat transformation, scale, design thinking, and artistic expression through engaging, meaningful activities that bring their ideas to life.
These supplies will turn our classroom into a creative lab where students design, experiment, and showcase their work.
The toaster oven will be used to safely shrink art pieces made from Shrinky Dink film, allowing students to see real-time changes in materials through heat application. Canvas boards provide a sturdy surface for painting and mixed media, while the white craft paper roll supports large-scale collaboration through murals and other activities. Your support will help students transform their creative ideas into tangible, display-worthy pieces they can be proud of.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
