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

I will be getting a new batch of kindergarteners and I couldn’t be more excited!

Art is everywhere!

Sadly, we don’t focus as much as we should! We don’t have our kids have creativity and create with their hands!

I would love to incorporate art into my classroom! I want to bring canvases and modeling clay to let my students create and be artistic! To be able to experience art and their senses with it! I want them to be excited about making something and then proud of their artwork!
