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

My students are creative and supportive of each other's ideas. As a class, we often collaborate as a group on ideas for projects or activities, and the energy/support that my students provide to each other is amazing to observe.

The symbolism and effect that color has in art and everyday life is something that is valuable in learning to better understand each other and the world around us.

With these materials, students will create a portrait painting focusing on color theory to learn the effect that color has on our moods through color mixing.
