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 LOVE art, and love to paint. However, we have painted our way through many of our supplies and it’s time to replenish!

These art supplies will allow us to make gifts for their parents, as well as end of the year keychains for our 5th grade class!

With the water color paper, they will be able to let their creativity shine as they paint landscapes and flowers. The Shrinky Dink paper is a favorite, year after year - students will be able to design a keychain, representing our class room, and then once it’s baked, it’ll be a perfectly size keychain!

We are looking forward to completing these projects!
