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

Creating in the art classroom is often the best part of my student's school day. This year I serve a large amount of students in the lower elementary grades - (k-2) Colorful construction paper can be expensive and we often need to replenish our stock in many of the popular colors.

Many of my art students are learning and practicing fine motor skills like cutting, drawing and gluing and we often use colored construction paper for these lessons.

Collaging is a wonderful way for students to experience creative problem solving and fine motor skills.

The paper, punches and crayons would be used for various collaging projects and also for mounting their artwork for display in our building so the school community can see their creations. I can't wait to see their pride in having their finished artwork hung and shared with their peers and families.
