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

A lot of my students come from homes that struggle to provide materials and now they need it more than ever since we got hit by Hurricane Harvey and would like to provide my students with materials such as sketchbooks, scissors, glue, pencils and materials to work with when creating their art work. I want more than anything to help my student work in an environment where they don't have to worry about anything and just relax and take their minds off what's going on at home.

My Project

These materials will be helping the students that got affected by Hurricane Harvey. I will be giving the sketchbooks to the students that were affected by the flood and will be supplying my students with drawing pencils as well. Thanks to this! My students will be able to create their creative journals so they can keep track of their learning and practice sketches! The scissors are for our future projects like collage, paper flower project, and other art pieces! :) The mirrors will be for self portraits and maybe other projects. Thank you very very much for your kindness and generosity!
