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 live for the creative opportunities that art provides them. They love art projects. I am always amazed by their creativity and free spirited nature when given the materials.

These materials provide my students endless opportunities to express themselves through their art using unique materials.

Using different types of markers, paints and tools will be a learning experience that will inspire their imaginations.

Just wait until you see the special projects that they create. I know my students will be so grateful for the these materials and will have so much fun!
