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

Most of my students are very artistic and expressive. With this Silhouette cutting machine we have requested, they will experience practical shirt and tumblers designing.

Imagine designing something on the computer, printing it, transferring it to sticker paper, and then cutting it out and making the coolest water bottle sticker.

Well, you can make this happen for my students. We have all the tools but the cutter to complete this project. Students have been tediously hand-cutting stickers and this machine would make it quicker and more accurate.

Students want to create stickers to honor their racial differences and celebrate what they have in common.
