My Project

My students deserve the very best. They are a hardworking group of 8 and 9 year olds who desire to be able to depict themselves and their surroundings accurately. Having multicultural crayons available for all my students is crucial. They need to see and be seen in the world around us. These Crayola Crayons are just what we need! Also, being able to independently solve problems on their white boards and erase them without getting marker all over their clothes and hands would be a big plus in my classroom. Thank you for helping my students be seen in this world!
