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 diverse learners in our kindergarten class come to school eager to create and learn! Through art, young children develop fine motor skills, enhance their imaginations, and learn how to express themselves. They learn to see shapes and patterns in the world as they draw, color, and create objects both real and imagined.

Our little artists see the beauty in the every day and want to recreate it with their own hands.

Your donation would enable our children to have basic drawing and art supplies that could otherwise not be accessible to them. The materials in this project would be well-loved and appreciated by the children as they expand their creativity and fine motor skills. I already know how excited our artists would be to have these colorful, exciting art materials in our classroom!
