Celebrating 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 typical day in my classroom looks like organized chaos- students are excited to work and treat the classroom as a studio space. This is the place they want to come to, so they can tell their story and express themselves.
At the end of the school year I want my students to build their portfolios!
My students live in neighborhoods that are plagued by crime, poverty and unemployment.
Our school serves a demographic of low-income students, many of whom are English Language Learners or students with Special Needs. We are a small school and it often times feels like family. My students are hard-working and dedicated individuals.
My Project
Envision a vibrant classroom of students using professional paints and canvases to recreate a master work of art. Students will study art history to build connections and critique the work of established artists. Students will use these resources to create a painting to exhibit in the school gallery for the community to visit and investigate.
Professional materials will really benefit the culture of my classroom.
Students take projects seriously when they realize they are using equipment that a professional would use. These resources will ensure productivity and creativity!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
