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

The majority of my students are experiencing their first year of education. I want their experience to be memorable. One of the ways I want to help my students be engaged in learning is through the use of Expo markers on colored paper. I like to color coordinate activities to help the class be organized and easier for the students to identify what they need. Since we do a lot of hands on activities, we go through Expo markers quickly.

I also want my students to learn and express their creativity by painting.

I would like to continue to tie in art with what they have been learning. Some of the activities are painting trees to match each season, painting the letter or high frequency word of the week. Also creating art masterpieces that display my students talents.
