FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Arnold's classroom raised $982

My Students
My 2nd graders attend a collaborative, diverse, and creative public school in Brooklyn, NY. We teach our students to be intellectually curious learners, socially responsible citizens, and dynamic problem solvers.
I want my students to have as many memorable and enriching experiences as possible by introducing them to all forms of art and culture, such as fine arts, theatre, photography, and dance.
Part of being socially and civically responsible citizens is understanding the history, culture, language, art, and traditions of other cultures by which they're surrounded, and by gaining an appreciation for different art forms, languages, historical events, and types of expression. I am also teaching them to be responsible citizens and students, kind human beings, and all-around fantastic "bucket fillers"!
My Project
My students have a genuine love of learning. They gobble-up all things social studies, science, and fantasy. Our classroom is well-equipped with books, textbooks, and manipulatives. However, in my classroom, the word of the day is ART.
I infuse some sort of art project into nearly every lesson and every unit in my classroom. My students have created clay models of famous African-Americans in history, have made prints of the NYC skyline, and designed their own bird species. By obtaining even more awesome art materials, my students can expand their learning, broaden their understanding, and let their creative juices flow!
