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

I teach civics and one of the most important aspects is civic participation. I would love to have the materials necessary for students to be able to create posters of all the different ways that they can help our Planet Earth. In order to do this with 125 students, I am going to need a specific set of materials.

Therefore, I am in need of paper, paint markers, colored pencils, scissors, and glue to create informative, mixed-media posters, about helping restore our planet.

Art supplies can be pricey, so we are in big need of these materials. Help us out!

Ms. Herrera
Grades 6-8
