My students need 12 Outus 2 Pack Stainless Steel Ruler, Sargent Art Metallic Acrylic Paint Set, and US Art Supply 8 X 10 inch Professional Artist Canvas.
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
My students are all Hispanic. Most of them do not have a computer or other technology at home. They are exposed to violence and socioeconomic limitations like lack of food or resources others take for granted. Our school provides a safe environment away from gangs and other socioeconomic limitations. In my classroom, my students get to dream with the sky as the limit. They've planned future traveling plans, designed their dream homes, and have become celebrated community heroes. The classroom is a safe haven where dreaming big is encouraged. Nothing is impossible when they dream, write, and share their future plans. They will thrive as enthusiastic learners when they are provided with memories that will last a lifetime. They will experience and recollect their memories in a whole new way.
My Project
The introduction to Common Core Standards doesn't mean that art lessons are out of our curriculum. Students get to be creative with the integration of visual art in language arts, math, science, and social studies. My students will be assigned a project to open up the geometric unit in math and another project to close the unit. Drawing and sketching observations should always be part of scientific and mathematical observations. They will learn that their designs influence their artistic outcome. Visual art, again aids math and sciences where students can learn how Picasso used lines and shapes in his master pieces. My students will be encouraged to collaborate & work in groups to research topics in of their interest. Then they will illustrate or make a model and present their research to their peers. My students will have access to supplies like 12 Outus 2 Pack Stainless Steel Rulers, Sargent Art Metallic Acrylic Paint Set, and US Art Supply 8 X 10 inch Professional Artist Canvas available to explore and create their own geometric master pieces.
I need your generosity to help my students have supplies to use and produce their own art pieces.
They deserve to learn about colors, lines, patterns, shades, shadows, value, & hues. My students will learn about famous painters like Picasso and Michelangelo and their contributions to Classic and Modern Art; and to the field of humanities in social sciences. Please help me put my students one step ahead of success by learning to appreciate art, math, and history.
