Celebrating 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.
This request will fund two projects. First, my students will learn how to make and sculpt using paper clay.
Students will use a toilet paper blend with glue, vegetable oil, and dishwashing soap to sculpt paper mâché characters.
For our second project, art students will then take donated recycled toys, dissect the body parts, and use E6000 glue put together a hybrid humanoid-animal character. The moldable plastic clay will help fill in any gaps and make their character more realistic. As a final project, students will take their refined character and make an identical epoxy mold of their character.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
