Passive Programming Art Activities for the Library Vol. 2

Help me give my students passive programming art supplies and materials for the library.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ritzer's classroom raised $177

This project is fully funded

My Project

I currently serve as a Future Ready Librarian at a Title I middle school. My school serves over 1,200 6th-8th grade students, with over 68% coming from low-income backgrounds, and many are emerging language learners. One of my professional goals is to offer passive programming opportunities so that my students have access to age-appropriate activities when they visit the library.

My new students need sketch books, markers, pens, and other art supplies and materials so that they have access to a variety of activities when they visit the library.

This project will give my students access to new art supplies for upcoming events and for activity stations.
