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 students are hard working and eager to learn construction skills that will prepare them for their careers. This program gives them an opportunity to learn construction skills including carpentry, painting, introduction to electricity and plumbing and building projects.
They like to do hands-on activities by building projects for themselves and for the public to raise funds for our activity account.
They also learn job ethics which will help them secure a job.
Our students and their families are still recovering from damages caused by hurricane Harvey this past year. Our town population is small. Students will have to move and travel to continue their higher education or a job. Learning these skills will help them to depend on themselves, in finding a construction job and make a living. They can continue their construction career while attending a higher learning institution as well.
My Project
My students build outdoor furniture and small buildings for sheds or storage. My students enjoy very much working with their hands. These tools will help them construct these projects and sell to the public.
By using these tools, it will help my students in preparing them to enter a construction job where a company supplies these tools to employees.
Students see loads of lumber arrive and they turn them into projects by using the drills, saws and sanders. These types of skills they learn help build their confidence, in applying for jobs after graduation and to be successful in life.
