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

The crayons, paint, paintbrushes, cups, and paper will make our students more creative. Art is a very personal thing that helps students express feelings, thoughts, and personalities. It is the time when our class relaxes. There are no behavior problems all students are engaged. No begging for student's attention.

My student's faces brighten with delightWhen I say, "Time for art!" That is what these supplies will do in my class.

They will give us the chance for a happy day. Students and teachers both need this time in our day but we need all of these supplies to make it happen.
