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 classroom is filled with diverse voices and backgrounds, and each student brings something unique to our learning community. They have incredible stories to share, and art gives them the perfect way to express their voices.

With this project, my students will have access to high-quality art supplies that allow them to explore a variety of techniques—blending, shading, and creating vibrant textures.

These materials will spark creativity while helping students develop fine motor skills and confidence in their abilities.

By incorporating art into different subjects, students will have meaningful opportunities to express themselves, think critically, and connect learning in hands-on ways. These resources will inspire engagement, creativity, and joy, transforming our classroom into a space where every child feels like an artist.
