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

Please help provide my students with various washable paint for the classroom art center. Art in PreK is so essential and giving them the opportunity to paint is needed on a daily basis to elicit creativity and talent. Paint is always needed because it is a disposable item that needs to be replenished yearly due to all the art activities I will provide for them this school year. They will pretend to be Picasso, Michelangelo and study other various famous artist to help them in becoming junior artists themselves. In addition, I am asking for the mouse paint reading kit, not only to help with students understanding color mixing but also to enhance their literacy skills in a fun way.
