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 are such hard workers, they deserve the best. Many of my students do not have art materials at home. Our school doesn't offer art so I try to incorporate art into my lessons as much as possible.

When my students walk into class knowing we get to do an art or STEM project, they are bursting with excitement and ready to create.

Students will get to learn about the life cycle of butterflies then watch the life cycle happen in our classroom. They will get to create their own bookmarks to keep track of their spots during book club. Students will paint there own cars and we will build ramps to test out force & motion in science. Students will use the volcano kits to have some hands on fun after our virtual field trip to an active volcano.

Students will get to use their watercolor paints to paint fractions, express their emotions, and to practice creating book covers for the stories they create in class.
