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

My first grader are special because they love coming to school, enjoy learning new things, and enjoy art class, especially when they get to paint, use water colors, and oil pastels.

I would like to get regular color paper and cardstock paper to use in the classroom to create colorful, exciting and long lasting art projects.

Also, I would like my students to use colorful paper to create projects for all the holidays that a vibrant, won't fade, and will last a long time. We usually use white paper and crayons and this can be boring at times. The goal for this project is to have better quality paper that will last longer and that will not rip when using paint or water colors.
