My Project

Students everywhere are still affected by the pandemic. Many struggle with social interactions and relationships as a result of the isolation that went along with preventing the spread of Covid. As we know, art has been known to help people in many situations. Providing students with art projects provides a kind of therapy where they get to experience positive interactions with their peers. As a Spanish teacher and sponsor of the Spanish club, I provide ways for students to create art from Spanish speaking cultures. We make paper flowers, papel picado (cut paper), and Mexican tiles.
