My Project

Hello, I'm very new to the teaching world and just took over two different classrooms at my local high school. Both art and floral design will be able to benefit from all of the art items listed in my cart. Anything would be greatly appreciated, as I am basically starting from scratch. My floral design as well as my art classes will be able to benefit from all of the requested items. The watercolors, hot glue guns, markers, crayons, paper, tissue paper, etc. I've purchased what I could to start the year, but I know that won't be close to enough. I like to think my classroom is an escape from the world where my students can decompress and relax. I've provided them with an area where they can bring out their creativity and nourish their minds. Thank you for your consideration and time.
