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

My students are very expressive and artistic. They love to show their talents through art. We have a few art projects coming up that they will love. We are painting rocks to encourage them to do well on the state tests. We are also using color pastels to create artwork for our upcoming Open House.

I want my students to use other art mediums that aren't just crayons, colored pencils, or markers.

They need to be able to experience with lots of different art supplies to help them become better artists.
