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

Help me give my students the opportunity to create their own artwork by using adaptive tools. Art is a way to create and express themselves. Art can also be a way to build self-confidence. It is never too soon to introduce students to a form of self-expression. Art can also teach students to be patient and improve their listening skills.

Art can be an outlet for students with special needs.

It can be a manner to explore and express their feelings. Art activities are a way to engage and allow students to explore.

Grades PreK-2
