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

Currently, our classroom has two small puzzles in the Chill Corner, which have attracted considerable interest from students. To accommodate larger groups, I propose acquiring additional puzzles.

Introducing "Free Time Activities" at each studio table will help reduce phone usage when students finish their art projects early.

Drawing books, in particular, offer an enjoyable and quiet alternative to phone use. These books enable students to independently follow drawing steps, boosting their confidence as artists while honing essential skills.

The puzzles and books will keep the students engaged and entertained, as they finish their projects.
