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

In my students world they will be able to learn how to create budgets to purchase and sell their products usinf these items that were given to them.

My goal for this project is for students to build confidence in creating their own businesses and experience the buying and selling of items that their peers would enjoy.

Building self-confidence while learning how to market items is another goal. Students sometimes feel that this is a concept they can not obtain but I believe they can achieve anything they put their mind towards.
