The supplies I am asking for in this grant are basic art supplies that every child should have access to. This includes aprons to keep their clothes clean, dry erase boards to practice their drawings so paper is not wasted, and new products such as General's Chalk Pastel Pencils that are too expensive for my school budget, I want my students to be able to have quality supplies so they can make their best art projects something they can be proud of. Right now, my students are using very small chunks of chalk pastel to create art. Some of the pieces are so small that the students have a hard time holding them at all. My students have been begging me to teach a lesson about Claude Monet. Many of his painting have this soft, dreamy quality. This style would be very easy for young children to imitate using quality chalk pastels.
