Your generosity has made a lasting impact on my students and their experience in the art room. Because of your donation, we were able to add art-related books, creative games, and inspiring tools that have already enriched learning in so many ways.\r\n\r\nThe books we received have quickly become a favorite resource in class. Not only do they allow students to learn about artists and their work, but they also help them practice important reading and listening comprehension skills. The rich illustrations have served as sparks of inspiration for their own art projects, giving students new ideas and confidence to try fresh techniques.\r\n\r\nThe drawing games and prompt tools have brought a whole new dimension to the classroom. These resources encourage students to think outside the box, take risks in their artwork, and explore their creativity in new ways. They've also provided opportunities for students to collaborate and bond, creating a sense of community in the art room. For some students who don't typically enjoy art as much, the games have added a fun and accessible entry point—making art class more enjoyable and meaningful for everyone.\r\n\r\nBeyond just being fun, these games and activities have helped my students strengthen their imagination and artistic skills. They've also opened the door for students to support one another, share ideas, and connect over the joy of creating.\r\n\r\nThanks to your support, my students now have more opportunities to engage deeply with art and to experience creativity in ways they might not have access to outside of school. You've helped turn our classroom into a place where students not only learn art but also find inspiration, joy, and connection.\r\n\r\nOn behalf of my students, I want to thank you again for your generosity. Your gift has made a real difference, and we are grateful to you for supporting art education.","fullyFundedDate":1742783506154,"projectUrl":"project/creativity-corner-inspiring-young-artis/9199232/","projectTitle":"Creativity Corner: Inspiring Young Artists Through Books and Games!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Martínez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8984382_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y509&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1742523154996","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-nmartinez-voigt"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_26899","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":277,"numTeachers":29,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":97,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":0,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"9.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":74.3,"schoolId":26899,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Greenfield Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Greenfield Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/greenfield-community-unit-school-district-10/greenfield-elementary-school/26899"}
