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

Every day for a brain break, we practice a guided drawing from Art Hub for Kids. Our classroom needs Sharpies to help students gain confidence in their drawing abilities.

Research shows when students practice drawing with fine materials in ways that keep them from second guessing their work, they take their time more in thinking and being deliberate in what they are drawing.

Our daily guided drawing also gives students a chance to refocus when they return from recess and lunch.

Using Sharpies allows students to draw and be deliberate due to not being able to erase their marks they make. The students will love having the same sharpies, markers and cardstock that they use on Art for Kids Hub. Your donation ensures that our classroom of artists have all of the supplies they need to be successful!
