My Project

My students are bright, curious, and creative learners. They love our choice time when they get to choose what activities they participate in. One of their favorite places in the classroom is the writing and art center. We are in need of some fresh paint supplies. When we went to create our Leprechauns this year, we did not have any orange paint. Although the students loved creating their own orange paint by mixing yellow and red, we now need more paint to keep our creativity going. I would also love to provide opportunities for my students to use the art easel with these easy to use no spill paint cups.

Art allows our students to express themselves creatively while providing opportunities for our preschool students to expand their vocabulary and language skills.

Designing and inventing art projects allows our students to take ownership of their learning and provides opportunities to build self-esteem. These art supplies will let my students freely explore, imitate, and experiment to figure out how things work. Art is fun to create, but it also provides so many opportunities for learning.
