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.
I teach art at an elementary school with students K-5 in a Texas metroplex. Most of our students come from low-income households. We provide a variety of opportunities many of our students would not experience otherwise.
Our students love art, but lack experience with a variety of art media. The students would benefit from the opportunity to explore media beyond the usual paper and crayons.
Our students would really enjoy a weaving project. By providing cardboard looms, yarn, weaving needles and beads, you can provide our students with materials to create a project which would introduce them to textile arts and could be included in a multicultural unit. Students would also have a fabulous project to take home and display when complete.
You could make it possible for so many art students to take part in a memorable art experience and create a fantastic project they will treasure for years to come.
Nearly all 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
