It's almost over...Summer Break. Though here in Florida we do not get the much needed break in the heat that we would like this time of year, we are on our way back to school. My how time flies when we are having fun. I know that I have had a relaxing and exciting Summer. I was able to go to Washington D.C. this summer and visit some amazing museums in our Nation's Capital. Which have given me some great ideas for lessons for this up coming school year!
If you would like to help us make some amazing new art this year, there are a few things we will need:
- Craft Materials---> Burlap and other Fabric, Beads, Buttons, Wire in a variety of color, Yarn Cones, Sand Paper, Wood Scraps (no rough edges please:)
- Toys--->Plastic Cars, Plastic Dinosaurs, Legos, Instruments, Play Sand (Or Beach Sand)
- All types of magazines, but sports magazines would be the best!
- Art Supplies---> Containers with lids (my favorite are the cream cheese and baby food), Flat boxes (like used for soda flats or the lid from a ream of paper)
And then there are the basics that I have listed on the top right side of my blog that we are always in need of each year. Just remember if you sending in a container that once held food, please
WASH it thoroughly before sending it to school. Thank you!
I can't wait to see all my students and hopefully some beautiful artwork that was done over the summer!
