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.
I am an Elementary Computer Technology teacher in a low income (50% Free/Reduced-Price Lunch) district. Our Elementary and Primary School students are a very diverse and unique group of Kindergarten through 6th graders. Each has a variety of strengths and needs, as 25% of our students require Specially Designed Instruction. All of these children are very special and unique in their own way.
My students love hands on activities, and creating and building things, but were lacking resources.
While our district recognizes the importance of STEM education, our lack of funds make it difficult to get activities and resources to our students.
My Project
Last year, we were thrilled to receive a Cricut machine though Donor's Choose. We have used it for a variety of resources throughout our school. Now, we want to share these skills with our students.
Our students have the opportunity to create shirts and accessories to show pride in their school.
Students will also be able to use these tools for creating fundraising items.
Our students have expressed the desire to create and manufacture personalized apparel for all of our school needs. A t-shirt press will allow students to take their designs and apply them permanently to shirts, towels, blankets or any apparel items.
Students will use the Cricut machine to create a design on software, then cut the iron-on material. The heat press is the last piece of the manufacturing puzzle.
