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

My students and I love reading, and through cross-curricular learning and reading in the art room we are able to provide additional supports to students and increase inspiration and creativity.

Incorporating literacy and inspiration through reading into art projects is something that not only is fun but benefits my students.

Through the addition of these wonderful books to our art room we will be able to increase our reading and inspire wonderful works of art. My students of all ages will be able to use these books for years to come!
