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

For this project, I am requesting cardboard scissors and accessories. These tools will allow us to cut cardboard for unlimited projects during our time in the art room. The accessories are specially made for kid safety while the advanced tools will be used with my advanced art students to create structures, explore engineering, problem solve balance and structure integrity. These unique tools can change our work with cardboard and allow for more complex and imaginative projects. It cuts though cardboard in much less time and with more precision then scissors, and more safe then xtaco knives. It will provide safety and security, making the these projects more relaxing and safe for all. I am excited for the projects that will come to life!
