With your help, I was able to provide Drawing Boards and additional materials for my 7th grade students. \r\n\r\nMy students began their study of observational drawing first by drawing their hands, then moved on to creating value drawings based on still life set ups. I constructed two still life set ups in the room, and students were more free to move about the room and view the still life from multiple angles with the help of these drawing boards as a movable surface.\r\n\r\nI am so excited about the progress these students have made with their academic artistic journey this year. They have just completed a self portrait unit, and now are venturing into painting. I look forward to continuing to use these boards for years to come, as well as use the boards to take out into the halls and outside for students to continue their study of observational drawing. \r\n\r\nThank you again, your support means so much to me and my students!","fullyFundedDate":1728156181640,"projectUrl":"project/drawing-boards-to-support-studious-middl/8853064/","projectTitle":"Drawing Boards to support Studious Middle School Artists","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Whitman","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9083192_orig.jpg?crop=1528,1528,x378,y185&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1726158328062","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9083192"},{"teacherId":9083192,"projectId":8756531,"letterContent":"Thank you for supporting my classroom.
