The Explorer Class Really Wants to Express Their Creativity!

Help me give my students the opportunity to develop their creativity by helping to provide these items to our classroom. I need the drying rack most because space in my room is limited for drying student work. Thanks!

My Project

I teach four year old students to be creative, helpful, and kind. I like to help them learn through art. We read books, hold class discussions, and then complete art projects to support our learning focus of the day.

The most challenging part is finding room to place the completed work.

The drying rack would solve this problem.

As you can imagine, we go through a ton of art supplies. Every August, I load up on crayons, markers, colored pencils, and paint when it is on sale. I am hoping to get funded, to save some of my money.
