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

As a Music teacher, I have my students draw and color all the time connecting the arts together in class.

Having my students draw and color helps them visualize music in ways they never would have without creating their own connections visually.

I have so many students who love to draw and color that they buy into my class more because I have them doing things they love to do while listening to music they may not have without being able to draw and color. It widens their understanding of music and they begin to be open to new kinds of music they may have never listened to otherwise.
