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

Preschool students benefit greatly from exposure to arts and crafts activities. We are currently seeking supplies to enhance their creative experiences. By providing a variety of colored construction paper, students will have the opportunity to practice their painting skills more effectively. Additionally, we would like to offer markers as an alternative to crayons and paint, giving them more options for expression. Throughout the school year, we cover various subjects, and providing students with arts and crafts supplies would significantly enhance their learning experience. This would allow them to use their creativity to illustrate concepts related to their studies or topics they find particularly engaging.
