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

The items will make a difference in art class by keeping students organized and tidy so that when they work on their projects their projects are created in a safe and clean space. Students will also use the straws to create art with paint that they blow, making the art tidy and more organized.

Students will use organizational items to keep art supplies, art scraps, and debris tidy.

This will help them create art in clean spaces and keep their art from getting damaged. Having trays to organize art materials makes handing out art supplies easier.
