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 Title I school serves free breakfast for 85% of the students, and they get to the school early to eat the breakfast that they don’t get at home. My students eat their breakfast at school each morning before they come to my class. Fuel in their bodies makes them ready to learn and start the day. We are a uniform school. Some kids have uniforms that fit and are clean, and others have uniforms that are too big, too small, and don't really look clean. The majority of kids are happy, energetic, and ready to learn, but some students have trouble staying awake and staying focused. They come every day from group homes, and some are homeless or being raised by grandparents.

My students are 11, 12, 13, and 14-year-old boys and girls who are growing, trying, creating, experiencing, experimenting, challenging, and ultimately becoming educated with art in my classroom.

My classes are all year long, so I can work with these students in-depth with technology, get to know their strengths and weaknesses, likes and dislikes, and see their creativity develop as their experience with art increases and grows.

My Project

Students will be going back to in person learning in the fall/August and with most not vaccinated each student will need to have their own art supplies.

This is a title I school with families not having extra money for students to have their own art supplies and so each student has access to their own art supplies, I am getting together a mesh packet with all the supplies they will need to create art for the year.

Each students will get a mesh packet to keep them in so they can keep them in their backpacks. I did this for students in distance learning last year and students were excited to have the supplies and then at the end of the year to keep them.

The first project students will do with their very own art supplies is decorating their sketchbook cover with a timeline story about themselves with pictures.
