My Students

I teach 7-8 year olds at my elementary. They are all so cute and anxious to learn. They love learning about science and social studies! Learning new facts is truly a treat for them and they are anxious to learn about different cultures and traditions. They also enjoy getting a chance to be creative and try something new.

Art and creativity opens a whole new world for my students.

They absolutely love to create something new whether it is with paper and crayons or legos. They love to try new things and then show they neighbors their creativity and new creations.

My Project

This project will allow students to learn about a new art form by creating pots out of clay. Students will channel their creativity in a a way they have never done before. Expanding students creativity is necessary for them to succeed in their life. They need the ability to think in different ways and try new things. Giving them the opportunity to create pots and learn about these cultures will meet those needs.

Connecting social studies with art is powerful and educational for students.

Understanding cultures is important for students to learn to increase their knowledge of the world we live in today. I can't think of a better way to teach about culture than to give the students a hands on opportunity. Students will learn and develop and understanding of culture as we discuss where this art form of pottery began and how this art form is used today. These concepts fall under the 2nd grade curriculum in art for visual arts as well as standard 4 in the Utah social studies curriculum.

I hope to provide this opportunity to my future classes and students. My receiving the materials like wires, brushed, stamps and brushes now I can sustain the project this year as well as help students in the future with the materials not used from this year. I hope to give my students in the future the chance to learn about social studies and art in a new and enhancing way.
