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

My class would benefit greatly from Kwik Stix Tempera Paint Sticks. We would use these paint sticks for posters, group work and culmination projects after each unit of study.

These paint sticks are a game changer.

They mess-free, dry in 90 seconds, and washable. You seldom hear "mess-free" in conjunction with painting. They work on a variety of surfaces, such as poster paper, wood, and canvas. It would be half the clean up, half the stress and double the fun. Students needs a different way to show what they learned and these paint sticks would help tap into their artistic side.
