Sparkling Pre-K Artists!

Help me give my students durable paper to display their sparkling artwork. Our school can provide our little Pre-K artists with white copy paper, although we do not have access to heavy durable paper.

My Students

My Pre-Kindergarten students are in a Title I school and all of them receive free breakfast and lunch. Many of my students are at risk students. They are accepted into the program by meeting the following criteria: family income, identified disability, health concerns, and limited English proficiency.

In my classroom, I provide a child-friendly and hands-on activities.

My centers are play based and my students want to explore new and exciting things. My students are looking forward to entering Kindergarten with the skills they learned.

My Project

In Pre-K, we use white cardstock for just about EVERYTHING!! The white Cardstock is perfect because it is durable.

It will be used for water color painting, painting with tempera paints, and stamping for student to create and display their creations.

Most importantly it’s GREAT for building my students’ scissor skills. Normal copy paper isn’t stiff enough and flops around their hands as they to cut with as they begin to cut with scissors.

The laminating film will be use to create interactive games/activities for my students. It makes the games more durable and plus we can sanitize them!
