“Sparklers' Club is having expert art lessons at my fingertips. I have the flexibility to change an art lesson within minutes and still hit national and Common Core Standards. It allows me to spend more quality time with my students and my own family.”

"Having never formally taught before, the Sparklers' Club has been a huge help. The standards, the instructions, and the tutorials make it so easy to teach and helps keep my administration well informed when I'm planning"

“My favorite resource is the digital planner. I use it EVERY WEEK. I also like that I can customize it to fit my needs. It makes planning so much easier so I can focus on getting other things ready. All the teaching aids, posters, coloring pages, slide decks, the Sparkler Magazine… These are the things that push DSS over the top. They are the reasons I’ll continue to be a member.”

The Sparklers Club offers such a wide range of lessons and provides all the tools I need to be a successful art teacher. The projects are engaging and really build a solid foundation in not only art techniques, but art history as well. I love how dynamic and diverse all the bundles are.

I was getting burned out quickly, and the Sparklers’ Club was the perfect solution. I can clearly see what I need to prep, and the lessons are open enough that I can make adjustments and allow for differentiation. It really has made my workload so much easier, and the students love the lessons.

The Sparklers Club is one of the most amazing things that has ever happened in my life. I love the lesson plans, the resources, the handouts, and the community! There is such an amazing group of people in this club. I’m a founding Sparkler and I can't tell you how much pride I get out of saying that. I especially like when I see a video from Patty or that it’s Bundle Day!

Thank You so very much for all your hard work and providing resources for Art Teachers. For the past 20+ years I have created my own sketchbooks for each grade level. It would take forever! EPIC’s ready-made sketchbooks are such a blessing to me! From the Community Group, to the lessons, to the LIVE meetups, and the responses from fellow art teachers, I am so grateful.

I teach small classes at a local homeschool enrichment program. I love having a theme for the year and TSC has helped tremendously! Being a member has allowed my brain to feel free from trying to think through all these lessons! Now I can go teach and enjoy the processes and final products with my students.

I am so grateful for all the craftsmanship, detail, and HEART put into the recent bundles and curriculums. I have been so impressed with the last few months of bundles based on the natural world and now the EASE Curriculum is blowing my mind with the training and projects! Thank you Team Sparkle from the bottom of my big Art Teacher Heart!

I feel so grateful for this curriculum. My 6th graders are finally catching up on all of those skills and producing amazing work! You can actually see their progression and improvement with each lesson! Lascaux Bull Heads, Woolly Mammoths, Cyclops, Greek Columns and the Rose Windows all from the Art Through The Ages DSS curriculum.

I'm really impressed with the Global Art Passport Curriculum. It's truly AMAZING!! It's wonderful because it incorporates literature, map skills, geography, art history, artifacts and more!!

DSS makes my job easier Thank you DSS for making my job so much easier this year. Last year I was asked to be in shows but I turned them down because I felt we had nothing of quality to show. This year everything is of good quality.

I appreciate the open-ended nature of Deep Space Sparkle’s lessons greatly. It’s nice to have such flexibility to modify each lesson. This is a huge reason why I’m part of this community. I personally know that inclusion and diversity are top priority for DSS, and they strive in everything they do to honor that. Everything from feedback & extensive research to lesson updates/restructuring, important conversations & humble, open-minded attitudes. They do not take it lightly. I SEE the constant work you guys put in to make an inclusive environment happen. Thank you!
