HI Christi;
I also teach HS but hold a 3 week summer program for ages 7-12 and for the
most part they fall on the younger end.
At NAEA in NYC I met a vender from Discount school supplies- They carry a
line of paint, sold in a kit called BIO-COLORS I ordered this kit and the
liquid water color kit. With the latter, you can do marblizing with shaving
cream it's wonderful! with the BIO COLOR you can do countless "projects"
Each kit ran about 70$ and came with all the colors, squeaze bottles, spray
bottles, dabbers, and a video (a little on the hoekey side, but it does give
lots of ideas.
Im not connected with them in any way, I just liked the product and the
service. You can reach them at 1.800.627.2829 or
www.discountschoolsupply.com
This is my 3rd year with camp. I do make some money and only have to work 15
hours at school. I get two of my students that need service hours to help
and I have one serious art student that gets paid.
I break it down into three themes week 1- painting , drawing and animation.
Week 11-printmaking, collage and marblizing. Week 111- Sculpture and
3d-design.
we aolny go from 9-12 and that includes snack time and a 20 min "recess".
If you'd like any other info, just let me know
Peace
Gabrielle
