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

How amazing does it feel to create something at school that's unique and best of all you can take home!

I teach 25 energetic, ready to learn kindergartens.

For most of my students this is their first school experience and I want for it to be a memorable one! Kindergarten sets the foundation for the rest of their educational careers and your donation will help me maximize their experiences. Our school is located in South Los Angeles, CA. We are a 100% Title 1 school, which means all of our students qualify for free meals.

My Project

I am requesting art materials for my students. In a busy daily schedule of reading, writing, and learning math, art is where they relax. I like having my students make crafts that I can display in my class and they can take home. Things like googly eyes and sequence make pieces stand out. My students love to paint with dot paints and we're in need of a new set. Dot paints come in handy when painting a tree to show the different seasons in science. We also use the foam stickers when learning about patterns in math.

I've seen how happy my students are when they get to create something and have it displayed in class.

Whether its bats for Halloween, a decorative turkey or a gift they make for their loved ones; they have so much fun making things. This project will help me make my students happier and my classroom inviting!
