Coloring Our World: Inspiring Creativity in Third Grade

Help me give my students new art supplies to support their creativity and hands-on learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Garcia's classroom raised $289

This project is fully funded

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

My third-grade students are an amazing and creative group of young learners who express themselves with imagination, curiosity, and joy. They love exploring new ideas through art, and each project becomes a chance for them to tell their own unique stories.

With new art supplies such as oil pastels, watercolors, paintbrushes, and other materials, they will have the tools they need to take their creativity to the next level.

These resources will not only enhance their artistic skills but also boost their confidence, focus, and love for learning through hands-on expression.
