My Project

We have an amazing group of first graders who love everything related to art! They love creating with crayons, paint, and clay.

Watercolor is a fantastic medium to include in our classroom!

It’s inexpensive and cleans up easily, as well as versatile and a fun way to engage students in the classroom.

Learning with Watercolor Paints can make practicing essential skills go from mundane to marvelous with a stroke of a brush. We can't wait to incorporate watercolors not only in Art but in Science, Social Studies, Math and our Word Work centers!
