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 materials are essential for many art projects in my classroom. We will use sharpies, paper, India ink, and watercolor paint in projects such as Heather Galler-inspired floral paintings, family portraits, and so much more. Art class uses so many consumables every year and my students need quality art materials in order to create their high-quality masterpieces. My goal is to show my students through a variety of materials that they can succeed and be amazing artists!

In art, my students love to draw and paint!

They love to create and use their imagination in their art. This makes them extra special in my eyes and I know that they will grow up to use their creativity and innovation skills in a wide range of career paths.
