My Project

Please help us get the art supplies we need for our end of the year project!

We need crayons, thin markers, sharpies, and a crayon sharpener to illustrate our class book which will be published into a REAL book!

Illustrations are such an important part of our class book. It really conveys the message of what our students write. We use crayons and markers to create detailed illustrations. We need the sharpies to trace over our final draft of writing. These are all required elements in order for the company to publish our book!
