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

Our request for miniature figurines will transform our students' learning experience by encouraging hands-on creativity. They will use these figurines alongside everyday items in innovative ways to create miniature scenes, all to be photographed.

Our goal is to inspire them to embrace tactile activities, foster critical thinking, and find joy in crafting with their hands.

What makes my students special is their passion for photography, even when faced with limited resources. With your support, you can offer my students additional opportunities to showcase their creativity and return to the basics, enjoying the process of crafting unique and original creations with their hands. Thanks!
