Help me give my students school supplies to be sensational in Social Studies!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Ford's classroom raised $189

My Project

My students are amazing and creative. With a range of disabilities, these kids love to express themselves creatively. Students who may not be able to communicate using words are able to communicate through their artwork! As a Social Studies through the Arts teacher, I teach my classes Social Studies by integrating the Arts. Sometimes this means acting out a play, or creating a visual arts piece. Through this project, I would like to use the colored paper and glue sticks to aid this creativity and expression. With the ink, I will be able to print visuals to help guide their learning.
