My Project

My growing fifth graders LOVE to learn about various art mediums. So far this year, we have used watercolors, oil pastels, markers, crayons, and colored pencils to create a variety of seasonal and student selected art pieces.

I would LOVE for my students to be able to experience the vibrant colors and quick dry time of these tempera Kwik Stix.

With these Kwik Stix, my students would be able to create a variety of art pieces without the extensive dry time that painting typically requires. We could easily complete a multi-step painting that would ordinarily take 3-5 days in 1-2 days. I would greatly appreciate your support of my students with this project.
