My Students
We currently teacher 6th, 7th, and 8th grades special education students. Our students have a variety of learning needs in which creating a stimulating classroom will keep them engaged. These supplies would help students in our Music, Fine Arts, and Dance programs to experiment with different techniques and mediums. This is the first year that students will be experiencing fine arts in quite some time. Because of this the arts department is in need of supplies so that our students may experience a creative arts program they deserve.
These supplies will help us get back on track as rising artists and future leaders in our world.
Art students would be able to create their own stamps through the process of printmaking. After not being able to sing in-person for more than 1 1/2 years, students are now going to be able to exercise the language of music through singing, writing music and studying.
Our dance program at M.S. 113 is in need of leotards and outfits that will give dancers the comfort of their bodies while preparing for our upcoming shows to welcome back our school spirit this year after a long journey of the beginnings of our pandemic.
My Project
The dance program at our school is unique. Students study ballet, modern, African, dance composition and dance history. It is a middle school version of a college conservatory program. Many students are unable to afford basic dance attire. This project will ensure all students have dance attire and boost their confidence to feel like "real dancers".
The necessary music staff books, reusable boards, study books, and posters will help our musicians create their own learning through music and their own voices.
In Vocal Music students pursue studies in choral music, vocal technique - acoustical method of vowel modification, and music theory and ear training. We'd like our students to experience our vocal program through their own creativity and discoveries. With your help, we can make this happen! Thank you!
These tools will help students learn the process of printmaking. In addition, students would be able to make a rubber stamp. With the use of these tools, students can learn how art can serve a purpose. Students would be able to create stamps that they can keep and use for years to come.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
