My Project

"Imagine you are a 6th-grade student. You need to do an art project. All you want to do is color in the sky. But, oh no! There are no blue markers! What shall you do??" (Written by a 6th Grade Student) My answer? Write a DonorsChoose project!

It's about that time of year where our marker box has about three colors left and they are all faded.

We are about to start a huge Imaginary Island project and will not have the supplies for students to make their maps or models.

This project is asking for a class set of washable Crayola markers, a box of permanent markers, and two sets of colored permanent markers to support us in our art projects, Imaginary Island project, and other work that students are beautifying.

We appreciate you considering this project!
