Help me give my students acrylic paint sets of assorted colors as well as brushes and canvases so they can experience the art of painting with acrylics.

Celebrating 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
We are a Title I school with a diverse demographics of students with a high ELL population. Our school population is around 700 students and is 100% free/reduced lunch. Despite these challenges, our students work hard and are eager to learn.
My Project
The goal of this project is to give my students a new experience into color theory that goes beyond color pencils and crayons. With the materials requested, I will be able to teach my students how to work with acrylic paints to create color wheels, understand how colors work through color theory, and give them an opportunity to work with traditional artist materials.
Student at this level often think that art is about drawing.
I want to take them beyond that. I want to show them that you can create art in all kinds of different ways and that drawing is not always required. I want to give them the opportunity to express themselves in ways that simply can not be done with other media.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
