Art Around the World Mexico Year 3, 4, 5, 6 Mexico Art Projects

Get your students making and creating beautiful arts and crafts from Mexico with this pack of 6 hands-on activities. Creating multicultural art is a great way to celebrate the diversity within our classrooms and around the world.

In this pack you’ll find six activities that include papier mache, papercraft, clay, weaving, drawing, and painting.

Visual step-by-step instructions are included so even if you’re not confident teaching art, students will be able to create something they can be proud of. You can either use these to outline the process, or the easiest option is to print copies for each table (or display them in plastic stands if you have them), for students to follow the instructions themselves. You could set these up as stations for students to rotate around, or do one activity per day.
