5th Grade Thesis

Help me give my students a professionally displayed 5th grade thesis art show.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. LaMonica's classroom raised $494

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

This project will be put towards giving my 5th grade students their first thesis art show. Their thesis will include an entire gallery wall dedicated to their 5th grade artist careers.

All of these supplies will be used to create a beautiful display of artwork throughout the entire first floor of our elementary school.

While this will be my second art show I’ve put together, it will be my tiny artists’ first as fifth graders. My goal is to give our students a display for their artwork that they deserve!
