Managing the Paint- How to Use Tempera Paint in the Elementary Art Room

[@art4theheart436]

I like the butcher block paper idea for the table! It should make for quick and easy clean up!

[@Managingthemess]

It does! I try to keep it on for a few days until I have to take it off.

[@KacyGeorge001]

Obsessed with your videos as I prep for the upcoming year

[@Managingthemess]

Thank you!

[@galehoag2264]

That's a great idea to date your paint! Why did I never think to do this?! Great tip!! Thank you!

[@Managingthemess]

Glad it was helpful! I do this with my clay boxes, glazes, and ink too!

[@art4theheart436]

Hi Katie, do you have any tips for transitioning between sessions if you have back-to-back classes that are painting? My schedule has little to no transition time on some days, and I'm trying to visualize cleaning up from one project and jumping into the next without going crazy :)

[@umjisthumb4338]

Please can I get the link to the painting techniques sheet?

[@Managingthemess]

Working on this!

Hi Katie! Love this video! Do you have an amazon link to the storage containers you use to store the tempera egg cartons? Do you have a guess for how long this storing method keep the paints wet?

[@Managingthemess]

They should last a month in the containers before they start drying. I originally got mine in bulk from Target www.target.com/p/sterilite-large-clip-box-stackable-small-storage-bin-with-latching-lid-plastic-container-to-organize-paper-office-clear-base-and-lid-6-pack/-/A-76074931

I love painting at home but obviously on a budget, what paper do you use? I always try to find a good amount of paper but holds up to water/paint

[@Managingthemess]

At school I use white tru ray brand construction paper. At home I really like watercolor paper.

[@kaerbear]

Do you think that tempera paint (washable)would be okay for my autism ASD class to do stencils/stamping? They need something super easy as they have low motor skills. Do you have any spec ed students? How do you differentiate?

[@Managingthemess]

Sure! Just have baby wipes ready 😀 Kwik sticks (paint sticks), dot painters, large tempera cakes would be great too. I do have special education students that push into my general education classes. At times I use different tools such as large crayons, Q-tips to paint, loop scissors, etc. as it makes sense. I have fantastic instructional assistants that accompany the students and help me differentiate. Sometimes we make the project bigger or smaller. Some students work on a slant board or attend art for a shorter period of time.

[@JoleneParrish-ut7wr]

Katie, what brand and size of drying rack do you have? I have 2 portable ones, in which the racks do not lift.
