Colorful Paint Projects

Help me give my students paints and painting supplies to paint our air dry clay projects, books, and a cup dispenser for our cups to use for the drinking fountain.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. WALSH's classroom raised $157

My Students

My students attend a public elementary school in Illinois where 100% of our students come from low income households. We are finally back in the classroom and loving every minute of it. With all the changes, we are looking to make the most of our time and make it as comfortable and safe as possible.

My Project

We recently had a project funded for some Crayola Air Dry Clay, and I realized we will need to paint our projects after we finish them. These supplies will help us paint our creations to make them colorful and make them our own.

Our students have been having a great time exploring art projects this year, since we don't have an art class at our school.

We have been making collages, learning to draw, and creating decorations out of recycled materials.

I also included the first two books of the Sweet Tooth comic series because my students have been interested in the new Netflix series of the story and want to read the books.

We also need a cup dispenser to help with the paper cups we now use to drink water, since they got replaced the drinking fountains because of Covid-19.
