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 in middle school and most have recently arrived to the United States. My students have left their family members, friends, pets and part of their culture in search of better opportunities. Many of them are from Ukraine, Russia, Venezuela, Guatemala, Colombia, and Mexico.

I would like my students to use art to express their emotions.

I believe that art will allow them to escape through their hardships and loneliness they feel being in a new country. Many of them live through the pain of losing a loved one due to the wars happening in Ukraine and Russia. Others left their country in search of food, education and emotional stability.
