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

We are requesting Cricut Joy Extra machines to help make bulletin boards, stickers, decorate our classroom, and provide students with an opportunity to make personalized t-shirts.

The Cricut Joy Extra, heat press machines, and the inkjet printer will provide endless opportunities for use in the STEAM classroom.

The use of these Cricut machines will help provide a positive atmosphere and tools for teaching as well. Quotes and bulletin boards can help uplift students in positive ways. We want students to have materials that will aid them in bringing their imagination and thinking process to life. We can also use the Cricut machines to create learning games and materials to support math and science. Our students will also sublimate personalized designs onto the blank keychains.
