My Project

I am requesting markers, construction aper, oil pastels and more. With these art supplies, my students can explore the world of visual arts with more than just crayons and paper. They have limited resources at home and I want to give them a chance to use other media to express themselves in all subjects, such as social studies and science.

My students are so eager to learn and would enjoy using these materials to show their learning!

Many of them went to online school during their Kindergarten year so for first grade, I would like them to use paints, pastels and watercolors. Please help my students to get what they need!
