Celebrating 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

The Scholars will be working on creating an art project depicting the culture of African Americans.The nature of this project will add awareness and focus the attention of the contributions African Americans had to the United States. Scholars will be utilizing canvases to sketch out silhouette and paint also adding fabrics to their designs.

My project is essentially a wish list in my classroom that I am experiencing and will provide our scholars to express , explore and learn through art.

Scholars are looking forward to representing the five schools core value( Respect, Responsibility,Optimism, relentlessness and Pursue , with this project.
