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

These materials that I am asking for are used daily in my visual arts classes, from rulers to exacto knives.

My students are so involved in their projects but it's challenging when I don't have the basic materials.

For example: right now in my Sculpture 1 classes, they are making two antonym sculpture, mostly out of paper mache. Some students need wire and wire cutters and needle nose pliers for the skeletal structure of their pieces. Some students need Mod Podge for the decoration of their pieces, others are using paint.
