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.
I am a Kindergarten teacher in a very low income neighborhood in the Bronx. Because of the academic rigor of the Kindergarten curriculum in New York City, my students never have a chance to use their imaginations to create. The school does not provide any materials for the children, and the teachers spend most of their money on essentials such as pencils, paper, crayons, and books, leading to a lack of art supplies.
Art projects are a wonderful way for children to develop abstract thought, and practice skills such as fine motor, spatial reasoning, and hand-eye coordination. In addition, it's so much fun! Most of my children do not even have crayons at home, so school is really the place for them to explore their creative sides.
I am asking for a Classroom Art Project Kits for people shapes, ocean shapes, transportation shapes, and farm shapes. each kit comes with everything you need to make a puppet in each category. For example, the People kit comes with, cute felt outfits, craft hair, wiggly eyes, spangles, sequins, glue, and craft sticks. The Farm kit includes foam hooves and ears, fleece circles, and colored feathers, craft hair.
I have used these kits a number of times and always feel the children's senses of joy and excitement as they use their imaginations to create.
Thank you so much in advance for reading my proposal. Donors make such a difference in the lives of these small children.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
