FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Peterson's classroom raised $486

My Project

Our 4th and 5th graders are hard-working individuals that want to help our community and the world’s problems.

Our students will be exploring the issues that surround us like pollution and mental health.

They will discover how they can create ways to help resolve or improve these issues by using art. Students will be understanding how they can create functional art out of recycled materials. They will learn to express their emotions, feelings, and mental awareness with the use of art on a large poster board, they will also learn how to design art with the world around them by learning to weave baskets and materials around them.

With your help, my 4th and 5th graders will have the opportunity to make these ideas a reality.

Thank you, Mrs. Peterson
