Original Grant Overview
Goal
My goal is to increase student reading success by integrating literacy through art. Reading aloud to students models fluent reading while acquiring ELA and ART vocabulary! I would like to read books to my students that include elements of art as well as developing growth mindset and practicing the 7 habits.
What will be done with my students
These books will be used to read to students prior to learning a new art concept such as line, shape, color, pattern, form, and space. The books will also include art history and key artists. Through illustrations, students will develop connections between art, story plots, facts, and print.
Benefits to my students
Reading aloud provides many benefits for children. These benefits include vocabulary acquisition, engagement, interest in reading and books, developing connections between spoken and written word, increased comprehension, phonemic awareness, sight word acquisition, while learning the elements of art and principles of design through reading.
