I love how my students are excited for new fun experiences. Myself and my co-teacher are looking forward to sharing our first painting day with our new students.
This year we hope to paint for a "Thanksgiving" craft.
Teachers will lead a lesson where students will carefully listen to the steps. They will get to use acrylic paint and large canvases. Students will mix a variety of colors and shades.
They will get to take home a beautiful work of art that they created. They will have this as a wonderful memory of their 5th grade class.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
