My Project

Kindergarteners love to use crayons and even markers to express themselves.

The art supplies I'm requesting will allow students to create their own illustrations.

I believe it's also important to include multicultural crayons when allowing students to express themselves through art.

Kindergarten is such a fun hands on age and these art supplies will allow my students to have access to a variety of materials to explore and create their own projects. The playdoh also helps build their fine motor skills and strengthens the muscles in their hands and fingers!
