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

Our FACS students are passionate about hands-on learning and developing real-world skills. An electric oven roaster will provide them with opportunities to explore advanced cooking techniques, prepare larger quantities of food, and gain experience with professional equipment. This project aims to enhance their culinary education, foster creativity, and teach essential life skills, such as teamwork and time management. My students are special because they embrace challenges, show a deep interest in learning practical skills, and are eager to make meaningful connections between their classroom experiences and future aspirations. This tool will help them shine as the chefs, bakers, and innovators of tomorrow!
