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

I am requesting a donation of Picasso Tiles, Model Magic, and Watercolor Paper.

These amazing art supplies will enhance the creative learning experience of my students.

Picasso Tiles: These versatile, colorful magnetic tiles will allow students to explore 3D geometry, spatial reasoning, and engineering principles in a fun and hands-on way. By building structures, patterns, and designs, students will strengthen their problem-solving skills and creativity.

Model Magic: This soft, lightweight modeling compound will provide students with a tactile experience to express their ideas through sculpture. They will use Model Magic to create characters, objects, and scenes, improving fine motor skills and encouraging imaginative play while exploring the fundamentals of form and texture.

Watercolor Paper: This high-quality paper will give students the opportunity to experiment with watercolor techniques and enhance their understanding of color blending and brush control. Watercolor painting fosters patience, attention to detail, and an appreciation for the artistic process.

These supplies will support a range of activities that promote creativity, critical thinking, and artistic expression in the classroom. Your donation will make a lasting impact on students' artistic growth and development. Thank you for your consideration!
