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 middle school students grade 6-8 in a 6-12 grade school. The student population is a diverse mixture of Spanish, African American and Caucasian students.My students share in common an interest in sports and science. They also enjoy creating a variety of art projects and look forward to working on their art projects daily. My students do not currently have a music class or a stage for student performances due to recent budget constraints. The art class they attend daily for 1/2 a year is the only "Arts" class they will attend in middle school. Many of my students struggle with the positive development of their social skills. My students need to have positive, meaningful, learning experiences while working in small groups collaboratively to help them learn and develop their social skills.

I love how my students are interested and highly motivated to explore art materials and create art.

We have many activities in art class but art making is their favorite! Many students take extra steps beyond the project criteria because they are intrinsically motivated to learn and take pleasure and pride in completing the work.

My Project

The scholastic art magazine subscription will be a great addition to our art room learning activities .The magazine will provide a visually rich resource of current art information for students to learn from. The students will be able to view the work of artist of the past as well as contemporary artists .This Magazine is designed to make reading about art fun!

Scholastic arts magazine is filled with vibrant images of the work of many famous artists.

These images inspire and capture the imagination and curiosity of middle school students. Students want to read about art that is current and reflects the present world around them.This magazine subscription includes activities and studio projects that will encourage students to explore art materials, think critically and have deeper discussions about art.
