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

"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up." Pablo Picasso On a daily basis, I foster the love of art in my students. I integrate art throughout my lessons so students can use their creativity and imagination everyday. My goal is empower students through art.

I enjoy teaching my twenty-one energetic, creative, and innovative transitional kindergarten students how to express themselves through art.

There is no wonder why the art center is the most popular. My students are artists that enjoy using their imaginations.

My Project

My students will be able to use the art supplies that I requested on a daily basis. They would have an opportunity to use them in our thematic units, art center or when we do our ABC crafts. They will be able to use a drying rack to let their masterpieces dry and not get ruin. Through art students will learn to express themselves.

Your contributions to this project will help my students become artists.

They will use the art supplies that you help fund to create masterpieces. Consequently, they will develop a passion for art and be more likely to remain artists when they grow up.
