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

My school is a Title I school with a huge population of students who are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. My students live in a neighborhood considered to be a low-income community, but this has not affected their eagerness and enthusiasm to learn.

My students are all high achievers and are always ready for a new challenge.

A determination and love for learning are seen in each one of my students. My students will be blown away at the unlimited and exciting ways they can engage, learn, and grow.

My Project

Students are often participating in celebrations and activities. This project would take crafting skills to a whole new level allowing students to build life skills that they will apply throughout their years. The Cricut machines will help in developing all of the projects we have in mind for this school year.

These materials will allow my students to create their individual projects for field trip t-shirts, science fair projects, and holiday gifts.

All of the students will allow their creativity to grow by using these machines and help in innovating their inner craftiness. Please allow this students the chance to greatly enhance their options.
