Since this was the first year for art in our elementary school, we have not built a very diverse inventory of supplies. My budget allows me to purchase the basic supplies needed throughout the year, however, it doesn't allow me to purchase mediums that are needed for many projects and techniques. Art has exposed our students to other cultures, allowing them to understand and be more tolerant of other ethnicities. Creating artwork that is representative of different countries, artists, and times in history has helped connect topics they are learning in their own classrooms. There are particular art mediums that are used for different artists and countries. Having these supplies will allow us to have a wider variety of projects for the students.
