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

For this proposal, I am requesting basics supplies for the art room. We need cardboard scissors, small cutting tools, and die cutter and other crafting supplies. These are items that will round out the art room needs and help us realize some projects my students have been eager to do. Cardboard sculpture is a fun and engaging activity that not only reaches many of my students as far as inspiration and desire to create, it also help reuse so much of our cardboard. Helping the environment and also stretching my budget! The small pen slicers are super helpful to cut complex shapes, where the die cutter allows for limitless art and crafting projects! The art room will really benefit from these items. My art students feel good with high quality supplies and find real joy in the creative process.
