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

These items will help students with a hands-on experience. Students will use their creative side of the brain to learn and create visual arts with what they learned.

They will be creating visual art projects as they learn reading comprehension and math computations.

My goals for this project are to fill my classroom with art supplies in order for my students to create visual art projects from regular classroom lessons.

My students need fun engaging activities that trigger their creativity and incorporating visual arts into their curriculum will help.
