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

Getting these tables will be great for my students to be able to trace their own work. My students out a lot of effort on their sketches to the point it could be their final artwork, and they are afraid that they might messed up their own projects if they try to redo the whole drawing on their own again. With these light tables students are able to make any artwork they want to make or redo as many times they want without the fear of having to start allover from the beginning. These tables will help the students to try to experiment and try new ways they could try to improve their artworks.
