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 such creative and funny kiddos! They have so much energy and so many ideas that I want to allow them to express themselves through art! They work very hard all school year in the subjects, Math, Science, English, and History. However, I want to allow our class to have time to be artistic and try to implement art weekly. Please help my students have art time and for them to enjoy themselves through their art journey. I want to teach the students about color gradients, as well as painting forms that appear 3D. In addition, I want to provide them with fun activities painting on canvases! I want to implement figure making as well as moments for them to paint and create something. I am asking for clay and acrylic paint and canvas for students to produce art pieces. I also want to provide them with our own materials for P.E such as different sport ball because sometimes our school does not have enough materials. So, I want students to play volleyball and Soccer.
