My Project

Healthy snacks will make a difference in our classroom by leveling the playing field for students without a snack from home to eat during snack time. They can also increase motivation since students can purchase with their hard-earned PBIS points.

Some of my most memorable experiences in elementary school involved some form of creative expression with medias including paint and fibers, which our school currently doesn't offer.

Art supplies will allow my students opportunities to express themselves, think creatively, and make personal connections to learning across the curriculum. It's important to me to foster imagination and ability to think outside the box.

Other needs such as Expo markers and a cart will help us function on a daily basis.
