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 Project

We are starting a crochet club at our school and would like to provide supplies for each student so they do not have to buy their own. We will be meeting a few times before the end of the school year so they can practice over the summer. We would like to be able to send home a skein of yarn and a crochet hook with each child over the summer.

I work at a Title I school, and many students do not have access to craft supplies or someone to teach them crafting skills.

There has been a great deal of interest in the Crochet Club at my school, and I'm excited to begin this new adventure with students of varying ages (grades 1-5).

Learning to crochet will help students learn eye-hand coordination, fine motor skills, and perseverance (as it can be tricky to learn the beginning steps and not give up). Students will also be able to practice their reading skills when following patterns and directions, using math skills to keep track of stitches and rows, and, once learned, crochet can be very soothing as it can be rhythmic and repetitive. Students will also have the joy of knowing they created something! It is a craft that requires few supplies and is easily portable so students can take it with them wherever they go (if they choose).

Thank you for taking the time to consider our project! We look forward to sharing photos and Thank You's with you from our club! (If our project is not funded or we do not receive our supplies before May 2024, we will be using them in the fall for another Crochet Club since there was so much interest in the club.)
