Food and Clothes Around the World

Help me give my students a toaster oven and a sewing machine to enhance their skills on preparing food from all over the world and the sewing machine to learn how to fix and redo their own clothing.

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 teaching languages of the world - Spanish and Mandarin at our elementary school.

We have a club where our students have shown great curiosity about learning and preparing food from other cultures.

This has been an awesome experience and the students love tasting everything we prepare in our club.

Our students love food and it's amazing to see them in action with cutting, grating, and mixing. Now we want to take this club to the next level with baking using a toaster over and learning to use a sewing machine.

By doing cooking and sewing, students can experience things that they see on TV and online such as what children around the world eat and how they dress.

The students can re-use and modify their own clothes with the sewing machine, which will teach them about taking care of the planet as well.
