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

Learning to use a hammer and nail is a skill that students should learn. What a better way than to create original nail string art! Students will design a pattern. Nail the pattern to their wood. Remove the pattern and then fill with string.

Students will learn an essential life skill while making amazing art!

This project will give my middle school students a chance to learn how to use a hammer and nails while unleashing their creativity!

As an art teacher at a STEAM school this is another project that will combine subject matters and give my students a unique experience!
