Marketplace Update

Guide Dots brings hands-on drawing lessons into student's homes. Our video-guided art classes use a unique light and Guide Dot system to teach the child how to combine lines, shapes, and colors so they can put pencil to paper and create with confidence. Students start with a blank piece of paper and use provided materials WITH full lesson video tutorials to draw and learn multiple techniques to add color to their piece of art. Various mediums are used including markers, chalk pastels, oil pastels, and watercolors. This method of teaching art provides students structure to enhance their artistic skills and build confidence while also allowing students freedom to add their own style. Projects can be repeated as many times as the student desires. Only approved educational items are reimbursable. Please visit this link for full details.

Homeschoolers may only purchase the following:

  • Learning curriculum (including books)
  • Learning materials: consumables i.e. supplies which are consumed, destroyed, or expended by the student in the process of use
  • Manipulatives: physical objects that are used as teaching tools to engage students in hands-on learning.

Please note that ACE account funds cannot be used for the purchase of electronic devices.
