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

Clay is a fun tool that my students can use their imagination to create into a sculpture for our 10th Annual Autism Gala! This will allow them to use fine motor skills to roll, cut, and shape the dough. My students all enjoy art, however, my students don't go to an art class, so I enjoy coming up with fun projects for my students to do.

By donating to our project, you will help create an art project using their imagination and fine motor skills.

I have noticed a difference when my students can take a break from their regular work and work with their hands creating a masterpiece.
