Category

School supplies - Markers, paints, paper, crayons, clay, pencils, sharpies, modeling dough, etc. 

 

What will be done with my students

Students will look at a variety of different artists & discuss how these works can influence the group project.
Students will sketch out their concept for the mural. Students will begin to paint the background of their square so that each student participates in this phase of the mural. Lastly, the children will create a small individual element to be incorporated into the finished mural.

 

 

Benefits to my students

Building community in a school and individual grade levels is imperative to students because it establishes a feeling of reassurance, a sense of originality and pride. As the students work collaboratively on their grade level murals they will learn to work as teams and cultivate critical thinking and problem-solving skills. 

 

Budget Narrative
