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

This uniquely engaging art project seeks to allow students to explore the seven elements of art with a new and interesting medium; students will work with cardboard. Students will be focused on the elements of texture, form, and color primarily while they plan, imagine, and create their two-dimensional or three-dimensional works of art.

Students will work with cardboard to create art that is made from recycled materials.

The teacher will supervise students as they prepare the cardboard with safety cardboard cutters. Students will also use metallic paper to add flair to their projects.
