Pre-K Spectrum Creative Thinkers: Every Shade Is Important!

Help me give my students the ability to imagine and support my diverse learners in an artistic setting.

FULLY FUNDED! Coach Frankie's classroom raised $491

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 Project

I have a large group of diverse Pre-K students who learn on the spectrum and my goal is to make art and movement fun and meaningful!

I am choosing items I have witnessed my students love, such as Play-Doh and wiggly eyes, with which they can work artistically; and seats that help them sustain their artistic concentration.

My goal is to set my youngest learners up for artistic success.

My goal is to help my students understand that art and humans don't come with manuals. We have school families that support our passions in art and movement.

I love my students working hard to figure out their mysterious minds and the many athletic ways they can move and groove.
