Mrs. Amezzane from Norwalk CT is requesting art supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Colorful and Creative Culture Crafts!

My students need lots of materials and supplies to create projects in French class. My students need different colored construction paper, crayons, markers, and colored pencils, glue and glitter glue, scissors, paint, sequins, and cardboard masks!

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 Students

I teach a diverse group of students in a public high school. My students come from a variety of countries and different socioeconomic backgrounds. My students range from 9th to 12th grade and are eager to learn a new language.

Some students may be learning a language for the first time, some speak Creole because of their Haitian roots, and some speak English and Spanish and are learning French as their third language.

My students need appropriate and up-to-date resources to help them learn French and be successful in this endeavor.

My Project

My students love to create projects in French, but we often don't have enough supplies for everyone. The markers are dried up, there aren't enough scissors, and we never have enough construction paper. The requested materials will be used for all classes to make their projects more colorful and creative!

The students will be able to use the masks, glitter glue, paint, and sequins to design Mardi Gras masks, the markers, crayons, colored pencils, and construction paper to create posters about Carnaval, and promote Le Poisson d'avril by making paper fish all while learning about Francophone culture!

The scissors, glue, and construction paper will be great for all the projects we create in class, and the construction paper storage will keep the paper organized! These new art and craft supplies will also lessen the burden on families that may not be able to afford the needed materials for assigned projects. All students will benefit from your generosity.
