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
I teach in a high need public school with limited resources. Most of the students in my school come from low-income families and are faced with many challenges in their lives. Yet they come to school ready to learn and absorb new knowledge.
School is a place where they can experience the world around them through engaging lessons which include books, art and conversations.
My students are very eager and active students who are full of energy. They need all the support and encouragement the school community can provide.
My Project
In my classroom, my students have been exposed to the visual arts through integrated lessons and discussions of paintings. They have even created their own masterpieces! Now we are ready to move on to studying sculptures. My students will be engaged in learning about sculptures and the importance of them in our world cultures. They will view images of sculptures found around the world and discuss the stories these sculptures tell us.
They will then apply their learning and create their own sculptures with a variety of different clay material.
They will explore the texture of each material and discover how to create their own work of art. They will develop skills such as planning, organizing and problem solving.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
