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 classroom community consists of 25 happy and excited children. They come from low-income, immigrant families, that work hard, and value education. My students aren’t always fortunate enough to have even the most basic supplies. Despite their struggles, they have come to school this year excited and ready to learn even during one of the most inconsistent and unpredictable years for learning. My goal is to provide my students with opportunities and materials to explore, see, and learn. The children are like sponges, soaking up everything that they are taught.

My students come to class excited and motivated to do their personal best!

School is a safe place for them to learn. I strive to give them not only the education that they need for future years but also to provide them with essential tools and art supplies to help foster this learning.

These crayons, Post-Its, and other art materials will help my students begin their Kindergarten school year with a fresh start. As the children begin school, they will learn how to use art to express themselves by drawing, creating artistic scenery to tell a story, and/or play. The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly affected my school community causing an even greater financial hardship to the already existing personal family hardships. These art supplies will allow my students to begin their educational careers without financial stress or worry.
