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

Our school is located in Far Rockaway, urban area where Funds are very scares in the school. Our students come from a variety of different economic backgrounds with 95% of students receiving free lunch.

In order to provide my students with a way to express their creativity through the arts.

I am looking for help to provide my students with more resources and supplies in the classroom to allow more hands on experiences through arts to make learning experiences more meaningful.

My Project

With our urban community of Far Rockaway. Our students don't get art class. Our school created a mastery program in which we as teachers can share one of our favorite hobbies with our students. I have always found as a child growing up arts was a way to express my creativity and imagination. It allowed me hands on experiences through sand art, origami, seasonal decorations and just me being able to express my art side.

I would like my students to be able to view and have this same experience and find their inner artist.

The donations will allow my students to get art supplies Such as glue, paint, paint brushes, color markers and sand art for our classroom and be able to express themselves through the arts and have a different view on learning.
