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

Dear Donors, my students love engaging in art activities. They enjoy painting, coloring, gluing, collaging, sculpting, and molding. To further heighten their enjoyment and love of art, they need several art materials. They need foam and wood shapes to make collages, alphabet letters to paste, and watercolor paints to make beautiful paintings. They also need the slime to sculpt their creative creations. Together these materials will foster my preschool students’ artistic self-expression and creativity. Furthermore, through engagement in these art activities, they will develop language and social skills as they communicate details of what they’ve created. Thank you for your support.
