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 Students

In my class, I have a very broad range of language abilities, but one subject they all love is the arts. As a teacher, I am always looking for a way to incorporate art into teaching. However, we don't have the budget to buy art supplies.

I have a diverse group of students with different ethnic backgrounds.

More than half of the students are English learners. Due to their limited language skills to communicate, art has been a wonderful teaching method to express their thoughts. Unfortunately, we have very limited art materials.

My Project

Our class would like to create art projects as we learn about the different holidays. With the glitter paints and craft materials, we can make a collage of sparkling snowflakes for winter, life cycle of a butterfly, and famous Americans. For our animal unit, we would like to use the clay to make dinosaurs, insects, and farm animals. The CD player will help us use our imagination and creativity by tossing and twirling the brightly colored scarves.

With your donations to the project, I will be able to bring creativity and arts back into the curriculum.

Generous donors like you help make learning fun and exciting. Thank you in advance for your support.
