My Project

We do not have a kiln, so Model Magic has been a fantastic way to create with air dry clay. Model Magic is often too expensive for our budget, but I try to make it work out. Right now, each student receives half of an individual packet, but I'd like for them to have the opportunity (if they choose) to use the whole packet.

Art tools are so important in a classroom.

We share a few tools for clay and this request allows for each table to have much more choice. These clay tools can be used for many years, which is so nice! Art supplies are often consumable (like the clay) and have to be budgeted for every year.
