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

For this project, I am requesting class sets of Kwik Stix Tempera paint crayons. These crayons will be used during thorough our time in the art room, but most especially during art therapy moments and other art making. These sticks are slick, super fun to use, very smooth, a feel good using! My kiddos love the nostalgia aspect them, they an item that reminds them of their earlier childhood. We do a lot of art therapy in order to create peace and calm in an otherwise hectic day for my art students. These crayons provide joy, really cool surfaces and have many unusual applications that stretch the creative output of my art students. They are really lovely. I witness my students focus when they use them, because of the nature of the materials, They are mesmerizing easy, and create moments of satisfaction and escape.
