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

The creativity that constantly flows inside our classroom every day made me realize how much I needed to step up my Art Game. As we wrap up Year 1 and move on to Year 2, I want to up the Art game in our room to allow my students to feel inspired and have access to the materials to bring it to life.

I love being able to extend our learning to a new outlet and allow for the exploration of new materials and I think adding some color with paints and creativity is the perfect way to start!

We incorporate some form of art into most of our subjects daily and it can never hurt to have enough to take our creative outlet to the next level.

With these materials, we will be able to create so many new projects, artworks, cards, and much more for our friends, classmates, and visitors to see and admire. We will always be one step ahead of adding a little bit more "COLOR" to make it shine!
