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

Creating community, inquiry, and self awareness through art education. My students are thoughtful, creative, and voracious learners who are always interested in using new materials, trying on ideas and happy to work alongside me as we learn together.

Through online learning, we tackled concepts, including self portraits, found-object art, art therapy techniques, data drawing collection (based on their own movements throughout a week), and drawing with music.

My Project

I have been creating art kits for my students and I am hoping that they will be able to have the joy of using watercolors both at school and at home!

As we enter the uncertainty of school this year, I strive to provide consistency for my students.

I am hoping, through familiar supplies, I can provide them some joy. We use watercolors in our art constantly and this would help to provide them their own set to use at home and at school! It would give us some consistency in these uncertain times.
