Make a donation Mrs. Hopkins can use on her next classroom project.

The tempra paint art supplies will allow my students to express themselves in a different way while also increasing their motor skills. Some of my students have never painted before and I want to give them a positive experience they can enjoy. Art is a great way to gauge how a student may be feeling, what they are interested in, and how it influences their visual representations. The dramatic play sets encourage cultural differences but also conflict/resolution situations. Each family dynamic is unique and each student should feel comfortable expressing that through play. Dramatic play also encourages creativity because the students aren’t scripted and they play naturally with others. Dramatic play often stems into career choice, community citizenship, and healthy family conversations.
