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

Curious, enthusiastic, and creative; my students are eager to immerse themselves in our art projects. They are fearless when it comes to trying new things. Although many students are trying things for the first time in my class, they approach every new project with a positive attitude. For these reasons, I want them to have all the different mediums and materials available to them so they can learn and experience new things. I know the students will appreciate your donations. Since this is a Middle School art class, which is a none funded program, the students have to fundraise to be able to do the fun projects we do in class.

My Project

With these much needed materials students will be able to produce a realistic image using silver board. Special attention to the animal’s fur or feathers will be expected. This will give the students a chance to learn and use a medium that have never used before.

They will be laying out design onto silver board.

Decide what the positive and negative areas will be. The exposed silver is your positive. If you plan to have a silver background, then begin to scratch away the surface first.

Continue scratching away. Pay close attention to the direction that you scratch into the board. Work directly from your photograph for the entire scratching project.

This is always one of the students favorite projects to do.
