We Are Different!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Castrejon's classroom raised $764
This project is fully funded
My Project
These art materials will help create a center where we can celebrate our differences. We all come from different backgrounds and I want to highlight that in my room.
I strive to include as much varied racial/cultural representation as possible. I want to give them opportunities to be exposed to different cultures around the world. Our classroom is very diverse and the students at our school are from countries around the world. They can learn about each other within this center by using skin-colored art materials to represent themselves in paintings.
This classroom project was brought to life by Dow
and 4 other donors.
