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

Help get my art room moving with Kinetic Art! Kinetic artwork is art that moves and depends on motion from someone or something to make it move, in order to reach it’s full effect.

Student will learn about kinetic artists like Alexander Calder, Jennifer Townley, Arthur Ganson, and Anthony Howe to see how art gets moving.

Using the Donors Choose items students will be able to explore stations of motion including, spin art, robot drawing machines, geometric drawing patterns, and gadget building to expand their creativity for years to come.

Thank you for considering expanding our classroom to include motion, creativity, and fun for my students.
