I have the pleasure of teaching eight wonderful students with Autism. My students are five and six years old. Everything in school is new and exciting for them. They want to learn about everything through touching and feeling. The students require constant reinforcement of skills through different activities. They learn best through hands-on experiences where they can touch, feel and explore. Our class is constantly creating art projects. It is a passion of mine that I share with my students. Some of their creations have been life sized drawings, a post office, colleges and paintings.

My school provides NO supplies. I love art and want to give my students the opportunity to be creative, therefore I purchase all of my art supplies. It is hard to keep up with the supplies and am constantly out of materials. Our class cannot complete some activities because we run out of materials.

My students really enjoy and love art. For them, the activity is calming and pleasurable. These art materials would allow my students to further maximize their learning experience. Art enables the students to explore topics deeper. When we read stories, I include art activities to further their understanding.

You can bring art into my classroom with your donations and enhance the experience of my students!

My students need 12 different art supplies, such as markers, glue, crayons, paint brushes, etc.
