Art for SEL

Help me give my students art options during our SEL time. I would like to expand what is avaliable to them while in my classroom.

My Project

I am lucky to be able to see my students every week for SEL/Classroom counseling time with me. During this time we do a variety of activities. As you can imagine a set of crayons and markers goes very quickly when 12 classes are sharing all of the items.

I am asking for more art supplies for my students so that way the younger students and the older students do not have to share as many supplies; so that way supplies won't go as quickly; and so they can focus on their work instead of worrying that the crayons are broken :)
