Art Survival Kits

These Art Sets are what I call "Art Survival Kits." My students understand they are responsible for the maintenance and inventory of the items inside and provided is a Laminated Mini Checklist for students to ensure their kit is complete and ready for the next class.
 
 Example:
Pencil point broke? You have a Sharpener...
Or maybe your pencil no longer has a usable eraser? You can choose either Pink or White...
Maybe you simply FORGOT your pencil at home?!
You can now SURVIVE Ms. Castillo's Art Class.
 
Kit include:
3 Regular Pencils
16 Colored Pencils
2 Sharpeners
2 Pink Erasers
2 White Erasers
2 Regular Crayon Boxes
1 Multicultural Crayon Box
 
This instills a sense of responsibility, accountability and participation as a class, group and academic art community. Plus, the kids LOVE having something they can call their own.
