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

I work with such hardworking students who have special needs. They are so creative and thrive when learning with art supplies. Crayons, Markers and Color pencils are essential for student learning. Students with special needs benefit from the use of color. Also, they enjoy opportunities to draw and color. Our classroom is a calm place for students to learn, have fun and be creative.

These supplies will not only be used for academic work, but also for them to be able to express themselves artistically.

We have a number of students who enjoy drawing and creating art. I will also be able to use these materials to create posters and anchor charts for students to refer to throughout the year. We need pencils, markers, crayons, and color pencils and chart paper.
