My Project

We are in need of some new markers in our classroom! The blacks are blue, the blues are faded, and the skintones are lacking.

Help give my students fresh, vibrant, and diverse markers for their projects and activities by supporting my project!

Markers are utilized in every grade level in my classroom in both art project and in early-finisher coloring activities. I've noticed lately that we could use a new stock and I just know my little makers would be grateful for the upgrade. We prefer to utilize crayola markers as most classrooms do and there are so many lovely sets of colors to choose from. I've added a classic color classpack alongside some newer additions we've never had- pastels and a wider range of skintones! (Right now we have an orangey-peach and a dark brown to choose from).

Please consider donating or sharing this project so I can help get the word out for my students! Thank you :)
