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 Students

In my classroom, students are encouraged to express themselves while they develop critical thinking skills in a structured and safe environment.

I teach art to K-8 students in a wonderful, large urban school with very limited resources.

There is a very strong sense of community at my school. The student population is ~750 students and many of my students are bilingual or primarily Spanish speakers.

My Project

These requested glue sticks, construction paper, and quality drawing paper will allow students to complete a variety of art projects in my classroom. Elementary students will be working on a variety of literacy based lessons and lessons inspired by famous artists. They will be using the construction paper and glue to create collages, drawings and paintings. Middle school students will be using the white paper for a variety of drawing lessons. The paper rolls and borders will beautify our school and art room allowing me to hang up student work, thus inspiring students to create more wonderful works of art!

Your donations will allow students opportunities to work on more projects.

If we have more paper, we can create more art! The paper rolls will beautify our school and art room! As of right now, we do not have any colored bulletin board paper, and these rolls will add a splash of color to our school.
