Free Choice Art!

Help me give my students more art experiences using supplies that they would be able to use for free choice art sessions. I would like them to be more independent in the art room .

My Project

I am requesting items to give students more free-choice art sessions. In these free choice art sessions students will be able to independently choose what they want to create from different stations around the art room (with some guidance or course!) Some of the items I am requesting are supplies that they can use independently for free-choice stations. Some of their choices could be painting with watercolor, using different items to create texture in their painting, as well as using different items to print. All activities would be guided but they would have the choice in what to create and how to create it; using the national art standards. And of course the art room always needs paper!
