Telling Your Story

Develop a story about your project that you can share with others, as well as with the ICA. The story should be brief (two pages maximum), to the point, and understandable to a variety of audiences. Use the following questions to structure your story:

1. What did your project set out to do? What outcomes did you identify for your project?

Our objective was to expose our children to new and exciting art methods that we could incorporate with our Cinco de Mayo celebration. The outcome was for each child to make a personal Mandala.
2. What did the project accomplish? Who was served and how did they benefit?

Children in grades K-5 were given 4 hours of art instruction during the week. During this time they created their personal Mandalas by drawing and stamping symbols and using water colors and colored pencils to enhance their project.
3. How do you know that your project accomplished these things? What evaluation methods did you use?

Each child completed and displayed their project for the Cinco de Mayo celebration.
4. How will you share the results of your program with others?
(These might be other school personnel, parents, press/media, PTO/PTA,
local or state policy makers, etc.)



We displayed projects for all parents and the community at the celebration.

Please attach photographs (please limit to 400 pixels wide) or other documentation that helps others to understand your project. Label the documentation with text that explains what it is and how it shows the project’s accomplishments.
