Although some of the artist summaries include links to purchase lessons, the information on this site provides an excellent starting point for learning about Hispanic artists and suggestions for student art projects. Use Figjam, reviewed here to create a collaborative presentation for students to explore the works of the artists mentioned on this site and others. Include links to videos and articles that provide biographical information on the artists and tell more of their stories. Extend learning by asking students to select an artist and create a work in their style. Share student projects throughout Hispanic Heritage Month to learn more about each artist and the different types of art represented in their works.Comments
Thank you for these ideas! I am an elementary school teacher, and we are celebrating HHM this week. I love the idea of introducing Hispanic artist to students through their style of art.Karla, GA, Grades: 3 - 5
