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

The materials I’m requesting—such as Crayola crayons, acrylic paints, air-dry clay, colored sand, and modeling tools—will provide students with hands-on, creative opportunities to explore art and self-expression. These supplies will support lessons across various subjects, integrating art into literacy, science, and cultural studies. For instance, students can create colorful illustrations to accompany their writing, use clay to model scientific concepts like landforms, and craft cultural artifacts to deepen their understanding of traditions around the world.

The bulk supplies, including pencils, erasers, and canvas panels, ensure every student has equitable access to materials, fostering inclusivity and removing barriers to participation.

By providing a range of tools and mediums, students can experiment with different techniques, build fine motor skills, and develop confidence in their creative abilities.
