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

In our vibrant classroom, creativity is a daily endeavor. My students eagerly engage in hands-on projects that foster learning and self-expression. However, our current supply of glue sticks is dwindling, and our construction paper is in disarray, making it challenging for students to access the materials they need efficiently.

By securing a fresh stock of glue sticks and a dedicated organizer for our construction paper, we can streamline our creative processes.

The glue sticks will allow students to confidently bring their ideas to life, while the organizer will ensure that colorful paper is readily available and neatly arranged. This combination will not only enhance our art projects but also instill a sense of order and responsibility in our young learners.
