As the librarian for the Middle School, 6th , 7th and 8th grade, Kerry Siderius is the resource for paint, paper, glitter, string, glue, food coloring, fabric and all the random requests from our kiddos when they have myriad of class projects.
She is a paraeducator but also a professional artist. She teaches a weekly 60-minute lesson to our Life Skills kids up in the library on Mondays.
They use myriad of mediums. With this activity the students practice turn taking, fine motor skills, group work and appropriate social skills with this one specific project.
