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

My students are creative, imaginative, and eager to learn. We are a school in a low-income urban community. Many of my students rely on being in school to receive the resources that they need to learn and the social-emotional outlets that they need to express themselves and manage their feelings.

My beautiful and energetic class is filled with 21 first graders who have been working very hard to learn from home since March 23rd.

My students look forward to art-making and creating in school and for many of them, this is the highlight of their day. My students do not have access to materials in their homes that will allow them to engage in creative art-making activities.

My Project

Every year my students and I celebrate the end of the school year by putting on a concert. My students prepare for the concert by creating their own tie-dye shirts to wear during the performance. Although we are learning from home, my students will be putting on a virtual concert.

Please help my students shine on the day of their virtual concert by helping me provide them with the materials that they need to create their tie-dye shirts.

Each child will need their own white t-shirt and set of rubber bands to create their tie-dye shirts. Many of my students would like to invite their elementary-aged siblings to join in on making tie-dye shirts with them. We already have our tie-dye kits so we just need these final materials to get started on our tie-dye adventure. Once we have all of our materials, the tie-dye kits and materials will be delivered to each child in the bright and colorful drawstring bags that we have selected.
