My Students

This year I want to bring the art of Mosaics to my classroom. My students will love bringing together pieces of stone and glass to make an original design. My students enjoy creating mixed media art, and look forward to bringing this mosaic project to life.

My school focuses on a strong parent and teacher relationship, as each child learns and grows.

My students are 3rd through 8th graders - these students love art, and have so much excitement for new artistic adventures. My students chose my class as their elective, and each of them have a unique way of creating art.

My Project

This project will be so much fun for the students at my school. Mosaics are exciting, and using a variety of materials including glues, glass, stone, and grout makes this project such a wonderful learning experience for a variety of ages.

I have 275 excited art students, that love being creative thinkers, and this project will open up their imaginations to the beautiful reflective art of creating mosaics.

Using a variety of glass and stone will give these projects a striking appearance. I know they'll remember this project forever, and hopefully bring this art form home to share with family and friends.
