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

These materials will be used in future art projects! 4th and 5th grade will be using clay to make paint brushes and masks! 3rd grade will be using the bowls, acrylic paint and vending machine capsules to make their own pokeball, pokemon, and environment for their pokemon. This project also includes some generic materials, classroom maintenance items, as well as prize box items that are great incentives for my classes!

My goal for this project is to make sure that my students have all of the materials available to them during a project in order for them to be able to express and create their ideas in any way they want.

My students all come from low income families so it is important to me that when they come to school they have access to materials and items that they would not have access to at home. Art should be an experience and a way to express ideas and emotions and I want to make sure that my students have the materials that they need in order to achieve that!
