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 Students

Our school has 390 students in attendance that bring their personal best every day. Our students are creative learners and hard-working towards their goals. Our school integrates prompts of depth and complexity within the Common Core Standards to nurture student interests, develop advanced critical thinking, and cultivate problem-solving skills. Our students excel in the arts and thrive with the support of music, theater, visual arts, and dance specialists at our school. The STEAM Lab has fostered our students’ interests in project-based learning and has provided an enriching hands-on experience. Additionally, our multimedia lab empowers scholars to integrate technology across the curriculum and increase the mindset of global awareness that is part of Global Digital Citizenship.

We strive to cultivate knowledgeable, respectful, and caring individuals with a strong work ethic and the 21st-century skills necessary to become positive, contributing members of society.

The instructional design addresses key elements such as research-based pedagogy, integrated content, inquiry-based learning, collaboration, creativity, critical thinking, and assessment.

My Project

The project I created will help to fund art supplies in my classroom including watercolor paints, specific painting paper, and new brushes. Art has been one of my favorite subjects to teach in the classroom! The students love creating with watercolor paints, but our supplies are running out.

With this project, I can continue using visual arts instruction in the classroom to support my students and their critical thinking skills.

Using visual arts has many benefits for students including developing their social-emotional skills and problem-solving skills. Art is a favorite among students and I can't wait to have new supplies to help students achieve more!
