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 students are eager to learn and show such promise in the world of art. We have begun our unit on drawing and will continue with painting before moving on to our final unit of sculpture. My students will be introduced to sculpture via foil and paper mache but my classroom budget does not allow for the purchase of clay for all of my students, 168! By helping us via Donor's Choose you will be making the dreams of my students come true as they have expressed their sincere interest in create a sculpture via clay.
