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

The art supplies in this order will help us expand our creativity. We will begin by exploring Cricut making and STEAM(Science/Technology/Engineering/Art/Mathematics). I am requesting a new personal classroom laminator, some paper for our classroom Cricut machine, as well as two staplers. All tools that will help students create and explore their creative side. Students learn best when there are no limits and they are free to explore and build using their imagination! With your donation you can give forty five young students the ability to imagine and design new concepts, all while fostering crucial fine motor skills and creativity!
