Celebrating 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
I am 5 days into this new FACS (Family and Consumer Sciences) job and am excited to get them movin' and shakin' with different projects. I am looking to get thread, needles, stuffing, etc into these kids hands so they can start to learn to sew buttons, different stitches, make little "dolls", cook and learn skills that will last them a lifetime!
I would appreciate any help to get this group doing what they signed up to do - have fun, learn life skills, do hands on projects and, cook!
