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 students in my classroom are explorers and creators! They love visiting the centers in our classroom but one of their favorites is our Art Center and because of this, our supplies have dwindled down. The playdough and crayons I am requesting will help our students strengthen their fine motor skills. The tape, paper, ink pads, and pom-poms will help my students create whatever their brilliant minds desire. They can create flat work or they can create work that is 3D. Whatever they choose ,these items will help them with that.

My goal for this project is to encourage the brilliant and creative minds of my students and have them display their artistic side to everyone around them!

I have future Picassos, Michealangelos, and Frida Kahlos in my classroom that need the necessary supplies to become just as amazing as these artists. They love exploring their creative side and these materials will help them do so.
