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 love learning, they soak up knowledge like a sponge. After learning about different topics, I always like to incorporate an art project that ties into their writing. Whether it's drawing a volcano erupting after they've learned the science of tectonic plate movement or drawing a cartoon strip after reading a story and then writing a summary to help with summarizing key events.

Having markers, glue sticks, or colorful paper in the classroom helps students express their creativity using supplies that often run out mid-year.

These supplies may be considered basic for any classroom, but they are still essential for everyday learning.
