It's been great!\r\nWe use our art supplies on a daily basis and I appreciate that I have a supply to last awhile. Using colored white board markers make learning more understandable and fun. Students also have their own white board markers to help with engagement, especially in math and practicing cursive. We used most of the clay in creating Native American dioramas and used the card stock for our pioneer journals.
