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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

During this time of COVID, I would like to establish at home and in person learning materials for my students to have a successful and effective school year. As the pandemic is worsening we're having to find creative ways to keep the students engaged.

My Project

Safety in the kitchen is extremely important and a liability that cannot be overlooked! The resources I have requested, such as latex overshoes, cutting gloves, and chef knives, will encourage a safe learning environment that will contribute to the success of our students! The majority of our student population comes from low-income households that are unable to equip the students with safety items while they navigate the kitchen.

As we embark on a new semester, our students are encouraged and motivated by the opportunity to compete.

The knife kits selected have the basic needs that will help my students succeed in the kitchen! Also the cutting gloves will ensure their safety to prevent any critical accidents.
