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

What I love about serving my students in South Phoenix is their resilience, passion, and commitment to learning. Items like the paper mache, paint, glue, and DIY masks will allow the students to recreate traditional items from different parts of Latin America; the laminator will support the preservation of the student's work so there is limited wear and tear.

They are continuous learners and offering them these hands-on materials will enhance their learning and understanding of different Spanish regions throughout Latin America.

They will be using these materials to create a variety of art projects of items commonly seen at different celebrations throughout Latin America. Their final products will be showcased and multiple guests in our community will be invited to listen to our youth speak about what they have learned through these hands-on experiences.
