Hands-On Painting
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Nicholas's classroom raised $358
This project is fully funded
My Project
These kwik stix would be a valuable addition to my classroom. My students are young, between the ages of 2 and 4, and these paint sticks can be so helpful in their handwriting development.
They encourage fine motor and dexterity while also supporting hand eye coordination by replacing the cap.
I also appreciate that these kwik stix help to promote independence in their user. Since my young learners are often just starting school and just beginning to explore materials, I find that it’s important to give them things that they can be a little more self sufficient with.
This classroom project was brought to life by General Motors
and one other donor.
