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 Students

I work in a hugely diverse district that is proud of diversity and tolerance. The students in our school are from completely different demographic backgrounds and ethnicities, but blend together in the most unbelievable way. Children of all walks of life unite in our school and bond through activities and their love for learning. Our sense of school spirit is our commonality and bonds us together. It is truly a special place to be. Giving my students every opportunity they deserve it my ultimate goal.

My Project

Help me to help my students provide them with a Cricut Explore Machine and supplies in order to creatively express themselves and their learning with in the classroom and well as helping to create growth mindset in the school hallways.

A Cricut machine and tools and materials will help us be able to better showcase student learning throughout the school.

Students can access materials for projects, classroom decorating, school building bulletin boards and showcase areas, costumes, visual labeling, and any number of projects can be carried out.

We will be able to make our learning come alive using digital imaging and tangible products!

A Cricut machine provides limitless opportunities for creativity and expression throughout the school! Using technology to create is a new and exciting way to demonstrate learning, beautify our school environment, and even provide staff with new ideas to best support all students!
