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

I teach very smart and engaging Middle School students that are eager to learn and soak up different techniques and styles used in art. My classroom is a space for them to express themselves creatively while using a variety of materials. They are funny, energetic and great problem solvers.

Most of my students come from low-income communities and different backgrounds.

Some students are not just new to the school but to the country and are excited to be part of my class. Many of the students relate to each other since they understand where they are from, they offer advice and support each one another inside the classroom and out. We always praise ourselves on accomplishments done in class, exhibitions and contests.

My Project

The use of a printer will give my students the opportunity to see how a digital image made by them; can be seen from a different perspective. Having a printer allows my students to distinguish colors seen on a screen and on paper. The plaster gauze will be used for making 3D sculptures, students will understand the process and physical reaction once water is applied and plaster is formed. The drying rack will help with paintings dry in a safer space and not ruined elsewhere because of limited space. The stylus pens will allow precise maneuvering on tablets for digital work. Printmaking is always exciting, having a screen printing unit will allow students to see their designs on a professional level.

The materials and tools I have selected will give my students another choice and encourages them to make art in a different way.

Working in a different format broadens their skill and allows them to experiment with unconventional materials otherwise used in an art class.
