School Wide eARTh Day Art Projects! Let's Celebrate Creativity!
Help me give my students a variety of art materials that they could use to create two-dimensional artwork for Earth Day, such as paper, pencils, mats, and even stuffing to make Plushies!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Young's classroom raised $707
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
Our students love to make art! I want to give them the opportunity to celebrate the idea of sustainability and recycling using a fun art project.
With this request, I am asking for a variety of art materials to allow all of my students to create different art projects celebrating Earth day!
You can't spell Earth without ART!
I am planning a variety of activities so that each student can feel welcome and they can feel pride in achieving great artwork. Some students have shown an interest in felt and sewing so I am requesting some of the materials needed to make stuffed earth plushies (like stuffing, needles, and thread). Some students want to create custom frames that they can decorate with recycled materials so I am requesting frames and mini glue sticks. Some students just want to draw pictures and posters that show that they care about the environment, hence why I requested sharpeners, pencils, markers, and lightboards so they can trace their designs.
I also plan on hosting a special event to showcase all the artwork that the students have created; an eARTh day gallery! I plan on inviting the community and requesting face-painting materials so we can have students from the art club paint the visitor's faces to show their skills and showcase their completed art projects!
All the materials and tools we have requested will be used in the artwork to create beautiful artwork for Earth day by many different students in different grade levels! Each group will be completing their own projects and designs based on their own thought processes! Creativity is fun and if we can help promote sustainability and recycling, even better!
