Support Mrs. Monroe's classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
For many of my students, art class is the one place they can be themselves and be creative. I encourage my students to come in and relax in art. I am slowly trying to teach them to let everything go that is going on in their lives and just enjoy an hour of fun with art. Many of my students struggle with the simple task of just relaxing. I guess they have such hectic lives that relaxation is a foreign concept but I believe through art so many things can and will change for my students. Art opens doors!
