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

Over the summer, a lot of our students come for summer session. Our students are 2.5-5 years old and spend the whole year working hard academically. Each day they have 2 two hour work cycles where they engage in academic work. Over the summer, we spend one day doing an art project. This gives students an opportunity to engage in practice life work. Since our students are in preschool they do not have a block of art, gym, or music so we use our summer programming as a time to engage in this work. We plan on doing a craft each week and align it to our themes. One day we will do sip and painting where students will enagage in painting canvas while sipping on juice boxes. We also plan on painting rocks to place in our urban garden. We have one of the biggest urban gardens in Denver and wants to use the rocks as decorations.

Thanks so much for considering our project!
