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

Making art as a 3rd grader is important because it helps develop crucial skills like creativity, fine motor skills, self-expression, critical thinking, visual processing, and problem-solving, while also fostering confidence and providing a healthy outlet for emotions.

These supplies will allow students to create their own beautiful canvas and come in daily prideful to see their creations up on the wall.

These supplies will elevate our current art pieces made from copy paper and construction paper. I plan on using the stickers and tape to embellish their creative designs. The storage bins will keep the art supplies for many future classes.
