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 have been through a lot over the past two years, and they have spent more than enough time glued to computer screens for distance learning and now back at school. With all the pressure to make up for lost learning time during the pandemic, the students have not had adequate time to process their feelings and express their emotions in positive, constructive ways. Watercolor painting lessons can help! Art provides a safe space for expression and will help my students reconnect to themselves and each other in the school setting.
