My Project

I work hard every year to incorporate an art project into as much content as I can. Art allows kids to grow. They practice important fine motor skills such as cutting, tracing, and drawing their own masterpieces. Directed drawings have been a hit in my classroom this year and they truly show how far my students have come with their fine motor and listening skills. I also make a memory book each year for each child to immortalize the art that each child has created for their families. Kindergarten memories are some of the most amazing.

By donating to my project, you will allow me to keep creating art projects to enhance and invigorate the content I teach.

You will be helping my students to see that people care about what they do in their classroom and that they are enjoying learning.

Thank you for taking the time to try to help out a classroom of amazing and talented kiddos! I know this list looks like a bunch of basic supplies, but with your help getting these supplies, I can enhance their classroom experience.
