Peaceful Art Room

Help me give my students a peaceful cool down space for a break and activities for them to relax before emotions escalate. We also need an art drying rack, art supplies, and resources to keep our classroom clean. Thank you!

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

The vision of our school is to create an environment where our students become independent learners and are empowered to excel academically and socially so they are prepared to make their mark on the world. We want our students to be excited to come to school and engage daily in rich, rigorous and relevant learning experiences and ask lots of questions.

Every day we support culturally diverse, relevant learning experiences.

Our classes include bilingual Spanish and are committed to engaging students in the arts.

We have also begun a mindfulness program in order to help relieve and manage stress that occurs in our children and staffs’ daily lives. A Restorative Practices model is used to build community and repair harm if it occurs.

My Project

The art room at our school is a refuge for students to be creative and unwind. The bean bag chair, coloring book, balls, and fidgets I have requested will all go toward our peace room, where students can choose to take a break if they are feeling upset. The drying rack and art supplies will help us continue to foster imagination and develop expressive outlets. The cleaning supplies will help ensure the health and safety of our classroom.

We are looking for supplies to help our students engage in exploring different medias as well as give them tools to keep calm and feel supported.

Thank you for your generosity!

Ms. Allison John Muir Elementary School Grades PreK-2
