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

As the school year comes to an end, my eighth graders have worked extremely hard and are ready for culmination. However, all of May, students are required to take an English, math and science state test and will definitely need time to relax and unwind.

Studies show that coloring is a soothing activity while it relaxes your brain and improves brain function.

Coloring will help my students reduce anxiety and stress, especially from all the state testing. Coloring mandalas with metallic markers will give students a fun coloring activity with a whimsical and artistic approach.
