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

In my classroom, we are running very short on arts and crafts materials. This has brought us some difficulty a few times this year.

At the end of the school year, students will be making crafts for Immigrant Heritage Month as a way to celebrate their own heritage and add vibrance to the school.

We need some basic supplies that we are missing.

We will also be making crafts during Pride. Help us have a well resourced art closet so that students can celebrate their identities during these celebrations. Thank you!
