Help me give my students an outlet to explore their identities through art and books!

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 bring and integrate art into my classroom to support my students in exploring and expressing their identities. These materials will enable all learners to imagine, create, and explore. My students will be able to do this through a plethora of activities using different art materials and read alouds. The read alouds will support my students in thinking and reflecting about their own identities. My students will be able to use these art materials to make their own creations that explore and express their identities. The flex seating options will provide my students with comfortable seating to create their art. The bins will be used to organize the materials in my classroom.
