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.

Marble Manikin Man will teach students about art concepts such as sculpting, texture, movement and form.

Third through fifth grade students have expressed in interest in helping create a large piece of artwork that can be displayed permanently in the school. Many of the students do not have opportunities to see, touch, or help create large sculptures.

This project will benefit the students in that they will work on a project as a team and with other grades, they will have hands-on experiences and their work will be displayed for the whole school community to enjoy. The resource needed is a life-size manikin. I already have the glass glob marbles, adhesive and grout. The students will glue glass glob marbles all over the manikin's body and then apply grout between the marbles throughout the manikin. It will create a surface with bumpy and smooth textures.

The manikin received for this project will inspire the students to analyze, describe and be a part of an art piece that will be in their memories for the rest of their lives.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
