This year I have been doing art projects with middle school students in a self-contained classroom. My goal is to develop process oriented activities, and we have been exploring different materials and techniques using what I have or has been donated to me. I would really like to try some more ambitious projects with my studetnts, as they have been enjoying what we have done so far.
Many schools do not offer meaningful art education to students with special needs. The challenges can seem insurmountable, but with a creative approach, I am working to bring these students oppportunities to make decisions, solve problems, enhance motor skills, and make beautiful art as independently as possible. Please consider helping me grow this project so we can explore art with less limitations.
