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 Students

I teach in a high need public school with limited resources. Most of the students in my school come from low-income families and are faced with many challenges in their lives. Yet they come to school ready to learn and absorb new knowledge.

School is a place where they can experience the world around them through engaging lessons which include books, digital media, art and conversations.

My students are very eager and active students who are full of energy. They need all the support and encouragement the school community can provide.

My Project

My students are full of curiosity and imagination. They are budding artists in the making! I use art to enrich my students' learning across the curriculum. We study famous artwork and how the artists created them. Unfortunately, resources are limited and they have no access to quality art material to make their own artwork.

My students are learning how they can use the elements of art: line, shape, color and texture, to create their own works of art.

With these quality Color Sticks, my students will be able learn techniques such as blending and the use of tones to create masterpieces.
