When my students first saw the new art supplies, their eyes lit up with excitement as they eagerly explored all of the new colors, materials, and possibilities. They couldn't wait to create, and their enthusiasm reminded me just how meaningful these resources are for young learners.\r\n\r\nWe have already used these supplies for a variety of art projects that connect to our classroom learning. Whether illustrating stories we've read together, creating seasonal crafts, or designing projects that reinforce science and math concepts, my students have been able to express their ideas in creative and meaningful ways. As they paint, cut, glue, color, and build, they are also strengthening important fine motor skills, problem-solving abilities, and confidence. One of my favorite moments has been watching students proudly share their finished artwork with classmates, celebrating each other's creativity and unique ideas.\r\n\r\nYour generosity will continue to impact our classroom throughout the next school year. These art materials will be used across all subject areas as students create projects that deepen their understanding of what they are learning while encouraging imagination and self-expression. Thank you for investing in my students and giving them opportunities to explore, create, and grow. Your kindness has helped make our classroom a place where every child feels like an artist, and we are so grateful for your support!","fullyFundedDate":1776450116755,"projectUrl":"project/little-artists-big-imaginations-creati/10189293/","projectTitle":"Little Artists, Big Imaginations: Creating, Exploring, and Expressing Through Art","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Poljanac","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9242025_orig.jpg?crop=2063,2063,x0,y61&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723250953979","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9242025"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_41322","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":716,"numTeachers":50,"percentFrplEligible":64,"percentAsian":6,"percentBlack":24,"percentWhite":20,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":36,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":11,"gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"14.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":59.5,"schoolId":41322,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Eastridge Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Eastridge Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/colorado/cherry-creek-school-district-5/eastridge-elementary-school/41322"}
