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 Students

A day in the art room is full of creativity in all forms! A diverse set of materials fill the room and engages the students in learning. We are working toward building a foundation of art materials to explore all mediums!

This school is a charter academy with an emphasis on fine arts!

The school serves students from kindergarten through 8th grade. This school is growing academically and is full of potential! The art program is an enrichment program to support creativity. Through joyful school experiences, we are forming lifelong learners and a positive school climate and culture.

My Project

In the art room, I try to give my students a well-rounded art experience by exposing them to all art mediums. Within ceramic arts, there are a variety of experiences that I want to share with my students.

My students need a clay extruder, glazes, and stamp mats for creating textures and line designs on ceramic art projects.

For this project, students will use various clay materials to embellish their clay projects. Texture mats add character and design to ceramic pieces. Beautiful glazes bring vibrancy and life to kiln-fired clay! A clay extruder will help my students use shaped clay to create unique art pieces. Clay is a fun and exciting material for kids to work with, and I know they will love to use these materials on their art projects!
