My Project

My pre-k students are lively and curious. They will really benefit from incorporating art projects that align with what they are learning in class. That includes reading, math, science, social studies and social/emotional themed creations. My little people are working hard on academics each day, and will benefit from exploring various avenues of creativity. This could look like painting murals, designing projects with reusable items, or simply painting a picture that reflects what’s on their minds. They will surely have a blast adding glitter paint and googly eyes to their junk modeling projects! We are so excited to add some personality and sparkle to our days!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
