Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My Kindergarten students are also English Language Learners and for most of them this is their first school experience. I want to provide a classroom that is organized with Art supplies. I want to encourage their creativity within a safe organized classroom where they can share their work visually and orally. I will label the baskets that will go into the 2 Shelf Bookcase. The Bookcase will hold the Glue Sticks, Liquid Glue, and Construction Paper of various colors. Students will create various Art projects which will be hung around the classroom using the Scotch Mounting Tape or Gorilla Mounting Putty. I would like to thank you ahead of time for your generous contribution towards my class project.
