After putting their heart in their art the last thing I want to do is place a child’s mini masterpiece on the floor where it could accidentally get stepped on! With the addition of a drying rack to store paintings this will no longer be a problem. The class pack of bold crayola markers will be used in a Valentine’s Day project inspired by the artwork of Romero Britto and allow students the opportunity to create bright colorful patterns in heart shaped designs. The model magic will allow me to teach one of my favorite literature based lessons on color mixing with a hands on activity to go with it. Thanks for your help and support!
