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

Currently my students have a very limited inventory of art supplies. They often must wait for a classmate to finish their work or use of an art supply before they can finish or begin their project.

New supplies will help their creative juices flow.

Having access to new art supplies will give each child the opportunity to express themselves without having to wait for another classmate to finish using an item they need. It will also enhance engagement with others and promote creativity.

Donating these items to my classroom will provide my students the opportunity to have more time to create and express themselves.
