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

My students need art instructional materials to foster a strong sense of creativity. Using colored wood party shapes, assorted felt shapes, multicolor and classic wiggly eyes, and pom poms of assorted colors, the students will decorate playdough figures that will really make my young students' magical art creativity really come to life, by turning them into 3D creations,. It will also help them strengthen their fine motor skills by peeling the nature peel and stick shapes and stringing the fancy rings. This will be a breath taking moment and something that my preschool students can cherish for years to come. In advance I would like to thank you on behalf of my young students.
