Student Independence in the Art Room!

Help me give my students supplies that they need to foster independence in the art room. Small squeeze bottles and spray bottles will allow students to have more ownership and choice of which materials to use.

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

I work with over 400 students in grades K-5, including a large number of students with special needs. I'm looking for support to purchase some specialty supplies for student use and safety.

My students need additional tools and supplies to help foster independence in the art room.

Many of the materials that we use in the art room are completely consumable.These items will allow students to have access to more materials and still control how much gets used.

The doormat and ear protection will help to improve safety for all.
