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

My students are enthusiastic and very motivated to come to school daily. They are eager to learn and they are so bright. As kindergarten students, they enjoy learning all subject matters at school. Most importantly, they know that their classroom is a safe and nurturing place to learn!

My Project

I would love an Art center in our classroom. Scholars spend majority of time learning ELA, math, science, and writing that Art is taught once a week. The Art center will be a place where students can go to express their feelings, ideas, and be creative! It is a place that promotes high level thinking, problem solving, and is rich in vocabulary. Students can learn and develop skills in all learning. These materials will be used in the classroom and students will be able to create various artwork. Some state standards that are taught in kindergarten are to expand Creativity and innovative thinking and with Art students can developed creativity and essential life skills. Having these materials will set up our classroom art center to be organized as well as a space where scholars can continue to be creative. These materials will make a difference in students’ learning because it is hands on and they get to work on their artistic skills.
