My Project
Art teachers’ budgets are notoriously low, especially when most of us teach about a hundred students per day! High quality art materials like Posca paint markers and Sharpies make even the most unmotivated students excited to use these materials and create beautiful, long-lasting art they can be proud of.
When students know they will use exciting materials, they are able to stay engaged in the whole art lesson, improving their understanding and skills.
Last year, I was able to purchase a small set of black Posca paint markers and a set of black Sharpies for my students. I noticed that the students who normally rush through their art projects stayed engaged in drawing with the markers and even asked to draw more when they were finished with the main project. Unfortunately, the markers dried out after so much use, and my budget will not cover enough for this coming school year. Thank you in advance for giving my students a high quality art experience!
