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

My 5th grade students are very artsy and love to draw and sketch any time they have free times. I would love to expand my library to include a variety of how to books to encourage their art endeavors.

My students are a bunch of budding artists who love to draw.

I would love to be able provide these art books to my students to encourage them to keep being creative. To help them to learn to draw whatever their hearts desire and to show them that there is more to learning then the core subject.
