Kids love to choose from a huge bucket of colors. Before I had this project funded, students had to try to mix paints to get colors, and we were wasting a ton of paint that we don't have funds to replace. The bottle sizes are perfect because students use less paint, too. All of my grades are using these paints. In 8th grade, we painted records, in 7th grade, we painted a parody of the Great Wave, and in 6th grade, students used the paint to make Agamographs.

Watercolor has so many different techniques, and kids are excited to create multiple pieces using all of these different techniques. We could not have done this without your support.

In 8th grade, later in the year, we will be using the chipboard to build 3D boom boxes from he 80's! In 7th grade, we will be using chipboard to make 3D letters from their name.
