My Project

There are a variety of items in this project to help the wide age range of students I have the opportunity to teach. Canvases with be used with acrylic paints with my older grades. A doorbell will help allow safer access to our class. Markers, and oil pastels are some student favorites when it comes to making art -we could definitely use a spring refresh. To highlight materials that allow engaging play I’ve selected some DUPLO LEGO options that have been in high request. The younger grades primarily LOVE when they get to build structures and play make believe. It is such a joy to watch my students find inspiration and creativity within our STEAM classroom.
