Choices (Create)
Materials available for choice:

I have found that making the materials available everyday easier if you have a set place for them. I have a "wet" table with paints, brushes, containers, and "nasty" rags. A "dry" table with oil pastels, markers, chalk pastels, color pencils, yarn, and crayons. Under the "dry" table are the cardboard boxes with an assortment of cardboard scrap pieces, poster board scrap pieces and a box of color tissue paper. Another section of the room has the "paper" table. This table has several types and sizes of paper to choose. 

• White paper
• Black construction paper
• Color construction paper
• Oil pastels
• Chalk pastels
• Watercolor
• Tempera paints
• Crayons
• Markers
• Color tissue paper
• Coffee filters
