My Project

I am requesting two new sets of markers, one thick-lined and one thin-lined set. My students love to use markers and the current set we have is faded and missing a lot of markers. I am also asking for play dough. My students work really hard and I give them some time at the end of our day to play with play dough, but the play dough I have is now hardened. I want to bring this back for my students.

I love to incorporate colors in our lessons, especially for my multilingual learners since color can help them distinguish certain skills we are learning.

We no longer have an art teacher, and my students deserve to have some time for art in their weekly schedule. I incorporate a drawing or coloring break whenever possible.

I am also requesting some pencil bins. I would use these to organize the markers for when my students are sitting in pairs and need a place to put all their drawing materials. I currently have been using plastic cups, but the markers do not all fit in them.
