Let's Draw, Relax and Have Fun!

Help me give my students drawing supplies so they can work on their SEL. I want each student to have their own sketchbook, drawing marker and coloring pencils for relaxation exercises.

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 Students

My students live in one of the toughest areas of Los Angeles known as Watts. They have many socioeconomic problems in their lives and are in a high risk area for COVID-19. Being from a low income area deprives them of many supplies their family sees as extras.

My students are Kindergartners in a Dual Language Program in a Title 1 school.

Title 1 schools are labeled that way because of the low income households. .

I love the fact that my students love to learn and are excited about any learning opportunity they are given. In spite of their hardships, they are very caring and enjoy school.

My Project

There are many activities that my students can do for social and emotional learning. I want to share with them the art of drawing as one of those activities. This is an easy, inexpensive way they can express their emotions and that they can share with each other in a class setting.

Drawing is the best way for Kindergartners to express themselves with few supplies!

This is a fun activity they can enjoy at any point of their life they feel necessary to relax or express something to their families and friends.
