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

This school year I have a small number of students, but I'm using this as an opportunity to delve deep into their interests. Art has proven to be one of their favorites. Art is a process that is always fun and exciting for my students. It gives them a chance to be free, creative, and produce one-of-a-kind art.

This year I want to focus on their creativity and I want to provide my students with collage art materials.

These collage art materials will not only give my students the freedom to design unique pieces of art, but an added bonus is it works on their fine motor skills.
