Watercolors are a magical medium for young artists to explore. The colors are forgiving, fun, and engaging for little ones to spread across the paper. Our class is a diverse group of learners with many different cultures and backgrounds. Our students don't have much access to new art supplies or materials, so I really hope this project can find funding! Furthermore, as of now our class does not have a place to store our class work, materials and books. We use random containers and book boxes to hold most of the items and the rest goes under student tables. Having proper storage containers would allow us to spend less time repairing our book/work containers and spend more time on classwork. Having these materials would also help students stay at their desk, where all the learning takes place.
