Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

The palettes and paint brush holders will be used when doing painting projects. We will use the containers to hold the paint and the air-tight lids will keep the paint moist and prevent it from drying out. We would no longer have to discard paint at the end of the day. The brush holders are used to hold the brushes when done using them. The students engage in several painting projects on a weekly basis.

These much needed items will eliminate waste and keep our paints and brushes in quality condition.

Secondly, the paintbrush holder will allow us to properly store brushes. This will keep the bristles from getting bent or crooked which frequently happens and cause problems when painting and eventually is thrown out. These much-needed supplies will help us properly store use and keep our supplies in good working condition. It is truly a gift that keeps on giving.
