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

The students at our elementary school are inquisitive, energetic, and creative. They happily come to art class to learn new ideas, practice art skills, and create art. They feel successful when they create something new that they didn’t know they could make. They are proud of themselves and want to share what they’ve made and learned with each other. They also learn that making mistakes makes them a better artist through practice.

Our art class sizes vary between 18 to 48 students, which means I teach a total almost 500 students a week!

Being able to successfully deliver instruction keeps students engaged and on task for the short one hour art class each week. During last year’s COVID-19 school year, students liked learning art virtually and in person how to draw and create from guided YouTube videos, watching videos and seeing images of new art forms and artists embedded in their lessons, and taking virtual field trips around the world.

My Project

Delivering instruction to so many students is easier with the use of technology by using YouTube tutorials or my own videos imbedded in PowerPoint lessons. They need a large screen TV used as a monitor, so they can view these lessons. As instructional videos progress, they can be stopped and/or replayed, so I can help those who do not understand. Each student can see the intricacies, rather than my very small hands doing something that not everyone can see. A big screen will help all students see what they need to do.

They will be able see the parts of their lessons that are videos about art, artists, or art history to help broaden their world views.

Many times I read storybooks to younger students, with the challenge that everyone can not see the illustrations. With a large screen and my camera, everybody can see the words and the pictures. To help enrich the creative and developing minds of 2nd-5th grade students at our elementary school, please help me to provide a large screen TV to deliver successful and enriching art instruction!
