The art materials I am asking for will give my students the opportunity to use their own tempera paints and full set of markers. In the past they used to share the art materials by table. Due to Covid-19 restrictions, they are divided by plexiglass and cannot share any materials which has limited the art projects I can teach them.
Being able to give them more options to higher quality paint and marker selection will broaden my lessons and their creativity! They are amazingly adaptive, and never complain about the changes and new rules but limiting their creativity due to lack of individual materials is hard to see. Art is not only a class for them, for some, it is the reason they enjoy coming to school. It is their place to bring their imagination to life on paper, or clay, or canvas. Help me give them the color for that wonderful imagination.
