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

The coronavirus has deeply impacted my music classroom because my students and I are forced to rely on video classes and online assignments to continue music education. It has been a learning experience for everyone and we are learning a lot about what works best for learning at a distance.

We have found that assigning projects that combine art and music have been especially successful with my K-2 students.

Since students do not all have access to musical instruments at home, I have been encouraging them to express themselves with visual art while I play music or they play recordings.

My Project

If we receive these materials, my students will have the necessary art supplies to use while doing my music themed lessons. I have found through distance teaching that my greatest successes are when there is a hands on component to this lesson.

Using art materials as a hands on resource will help my students learn through music inspired lessons.

They will be able to create illustrations involving the themes and moods of the music they are learning about. Since they can't access classroom instruments, they can use their imaginations to capture the essence of the music through art.
