The Description

With these funds I will...enrich my students' lives with the beauty of arts and crafts to develop a life long love of creativity. When I was a child, I thrived on using watercolors, paint, chalk, colored pencils, and bits and pieces of anything I could turn in to art. My kids at school only get to go to art once a week. As a kinder teacher, I try to bring art into the classroom as much as possible. This is the time when creative minds need to be developed and allowed to explore. At home kids are too busy with dance lessons, music lessons, and sports activities, that having fun with good old art supplies just doesn't happen. When's the last time you got to swirl your finger in some finger paint and create a beloved piece of art? I want my kids to have these experiences! In order for this to happen, I need funds to buy all those wonderful art supplies :)

Back Up Plan

If we don't reach our entire goal we will...buy whatever art supplies we can afford. Art will happen one way or another. However, donations will always help towards this cause. I appreciate anything you can provide. Sincerely, Mrs. Maloney

Crafty Kids in Kinder

July 22, 2014

This past school year, I used these amazing funds to buy art supplies for my wonderful kindergarten students.

We used these supplies to make kites during our Spring season unit.

We created hermit crabs during our ocean unit.

We made beautiful Mother's and Father's Day cards.

We used our supplies for some neat science experiments :)

We used art supplies in our daily art center and during free choice time.

 

Thank you so much for your contribution and making art possible in my classroom.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Maloney

About the Creator

Hi! My name is Mattina Maloney. I have taught kindergarten for 4 years. All my life I have wanted to be a kindergarten teacher :) The greatest moment I had was when I finished my college education/teacher certification and visited my old kindergarten teacher! She was still teaching at the same school that I went to 18 years ago! It was amazing to go back and be able to tell my previous kinder teacher that I remembered her and grew up to be a kinder teacher myself. I work at an amazing school with amazing teachers, administration, parents, and of course children!
