Storage to Spark Joy

Help me give my students an orderly classroom using these clear bins; we have a lot of donated craft materials like ribbons, popsicle sticks, fabric, and buttons that need organization.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students get so excited about using new materials. So far this school year, we have been more focused on two-dimensional artwork but we are gearing up to start using the many craft supplies and odds-and-ends I have found in the classroom. These clear bins will motivate me to finish organizing my three-dimensional items so that we can start using them.

I have so many ideas for how to use the various art materials I have found in my closets!

I have plans to create collages, monoprints, and found-object sculptures.
