This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
Light-up tracing pads can be excellent tools for teaching art in a middle school classroom. They provide a convenient way for students to trace images, practice drawing, and experiment with different techniques.
Tracing allows them to practice controlling their hand movements and refining their techniques in a fun and engaging way.
Light-up tracing pads creates an engaging and interactive experience for students. Using light-up tracing pads can help middle schoolers develop their fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and drawing abilities.
I would love to have these tracing pads available to help my struggling artists. Some of my students lack the confidence to draw realistically. These tools can help build their confidence and make their drawings more successful. They can also help my more experienced artists by giving them the ability to see the details in photos and figuring out how to draw them.
