My Students
My scholars at 122 are hardworking, creative, and determined to learn and engage in the world around them. When given the opportunity to discover, explore and create they will, and they will do it whole heartedly. As their visual art teacher I admire their strength to put forth their best effort regardless of the challenging forces that prevent them in doing so.
Being able to provide my students with the supplies they need is not only important to me, but important to my students as well.
This opportunity to explore and discover is vitally important to understand and acknowledge how embracing a visual arts curriculum which integrates reading, writing, and speaking literacies can help build stronger and more confident students.
My Project
This project is a continuation of the “Art Literacy Is Key” Project. These various books and art materials will also be used in promoting more reading in our visual art class. Most students on a daily basis get discouraged when it comes to reading or expressing themselves in a creative way. Many students tend to give up on an different projects or assignments that include literacy. However, literacy is an important part of every subject. Therefore, I want to use these supplies to promote reading and develop their art knowledge and skills. I want to begin to grow a library of books related to the arts and keep it accessible in my classroom. The books and visual art posters listed below contain fabulous illustrations and artistic vocabulary that will simply inspire my students to want to read more. These books and visual posters will be used in our daily lesson plans and related to our weekly visual art projects.
