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

Our campus is home to a vibrant and diverse student population. Each year, we welcome newcomer students from different countries and cultures. Each student brings something unique to my classroom, and I hope to make them feel welcomed and represented.

Art has the unique ability to bring students together, despite language barriers.

When a new student joins the class, they can follow visual clues and begin to feel comfortable in a new environment while exploring their creativity.

I would love to provide a variety of mindful activities to help my newcomer students relax and feel at home in my art classroom. By providing a variety of identity affirming coloring books and sets of Crayola Color Your World pencils and markers, I can help all of my students know that I care about their well-being and celebrate their diversity.
