Multicultural Students Need Crayons to Match Their Lovely Faces
Help me give my students a long reach stapler, markers, and multi-cultural crayons that match their own skin colors and ethnicities!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Jacobus's classroom raised $276
This project is fully funded
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.
My Students
My pre-K students live in Newark, NJ. They have been learning at home since last March. They love art but are running very low on supplies.
I do many lessons that require drawing people and people come in many shades.
Their crayons do not. I'd like each child to have an 8-pack of multi-ethnic crayons in their art packs.
When we get back to school there will be no sharing of supplies so every child will need to have his/her own.
My Project
We do many drawing projects that require drawing people: self-portraits and Martin Luther King, Frida Kahlo, and Vincent VanGogh. Somehow these people do not look good in blue!
People do not come in one shade of brown!
Please give my children individual packs of 8 Crayola Multi-Ethnic Crayons. They will use them at home and when we return to school.
We can even use the crayons when we study lions, rabbits, illustrate Brown Bear, Brown Bear, and draw the school mascot owl. Corduroy the charming bear is brown, not green like his pants!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
