The use of acrylic paint markers, wax paper, and paint really expands the value of learning and creativity. These materials help support students' approach towards art education, allowing students to experiment, explore, and build confidence while developing essential artistic skills.\r\n\r\nMany students struggle with traditional acrylic with brushes but by using acrylic markers, it provides students with greater control, allowing them to gain confidence and prevent messes. The markers also allow them to focus on small, neat details and composition. Wax paper is also a key component for our art class because having a surface to experiment and mix colors, students feel more comfortable taking creative risks and learning trial and error. This teaches them the importance of artistic processes rather than perfection. Wax paper is also more convenient than placing paint directly on a palette since it is easier to clean up.\r\n\r\nWhile these materials require expectations for setup and cleanup, these routines also ensure responsibility and safe learning environments. Compared to limited challenges, students benefit by reinforcing student engagement, deeper understanding of artistic concepts, and inclusivity. Overall, the use of these materials help create an art classroom that is exploratory and aligned with best practices.","fullyFundedDate":1769191962544,"projectUrl":"project/paint-for-professional-artists/10044206/","projectTitle":"Paint for Professional Artists","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Kuver","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2124261_orig.jpg?crop=250,250,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755611549474","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/kuver"},{"teacherId":1468647,"projectId":9715797,"letterContent":"Thank you for helping our students' learning by becoming more organized in their thinking by using folders.\r\n\r\nStudents are now able to keep their handouts, homework, class work, and graphic organizers in one central location.\r\n\r\nNo more need repeated copies to be made or loss of handouts!

Although we are only at the beginning of the book, \"Essentialism\" by Greg McKeown, we have already gained valuable insight on priorities, time management, decision-making, self awareness, resilience, and school-life balance. These are lessons that would be much more challenging to learn in another environment. Business and Entrepreneurship classes are ideal for learning about self-help.\r\nTypically, we read for 15 minutes on Tuesday and Thursday at the beginning of class, and discuss the highlights of the readings. It is then that my students get to express their understanding and interpretation of the text and we expand our learning by connecting our real world experiences and applying the lessons in situational context. They embrace the spirited discussions and academic engagement. Shwetashree, Damarys, and Allyson read ahead and are always ready to participate and sometimes take the lead on discussions. They prompt me to expand the dimensions of discussions to college level. I am an avid reader, so I do this relatively easy.","fullyFundedDate":1758899164866,"projectUrl":"project/self-care-for-seniors/9675399/","projectTitle":"Self-Care for Seniors","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Besson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9827311_orig.jpg?crop=1870,1870,x0,y18&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755262341390","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9827311"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_1129","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":747,"numTeachers":48,"percentFrplEligible":87,"percentAsian":9,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":5,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":78,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"15.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":56.9,"schoolId":1129,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about High School Arts & Business on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"High School Arts & Business","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/new-york-city-dept-of-ed/high-school-arts-business/1129"}
