tm
A rewarding K- 12 art lesson in which your students
see their idea go from a drawing to a professional product.
Teach the MyCardstm lesson on card design and supplement your art budget.
There is no cost to your school!
The Art Lesson
Lead your students through the MyCardstm process of creating and publishing a quality card design. Using our three day,
standards-based lesson plan as a guide, you’ll teach your students to create an attractive card design that compares
with cards they see in stores and galleries. Allow 1 week to complete the lesson if you see your students daily.
The Press Kit
We send a customized press kit free of charge with everything you need for a fun and rewarding classroom project:
teacher’s guide, three day standards-based lesson plan, sample cards, design templates, parent notes
and order forms, individual class organization envelopes, shipping box and prepaid return shipping label.
The Card Boxes
Each student’s card box contains 10 (4x5) cards w/envelopes of that student’s design. Each card features a full color
reproduction of the student’s design on the front and his/her name and school on the back. Printed on premium card
stock, cards are boxed in clear plastic boxes for a beautiful presentation. Allow 3 weeks to receive the cards.
The Money for Your Art Department
Parents may purchase retail quality card boxes of their child’s design at a special school price
of $14.95, shipping included. We donate $3/box to your art program for every box ordered.
There is no minimum order or limit to the size of your donation.
