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

Home Economics is an exciting class to teach during the after-school program. Students will learn several impacting concepts throughout the year like cooking and beginning financial responsibility.

Special items like cooking utensils, small kitchen appliances and play money will help the students get organized and prepared for many cooking lessons.

To enhance my students learning experience, play money will be an essential component to help students have firsthand learning about financial literacy and creating a small business. In addition, financial literacy and home economics will teach students how to budget and make purchases.

Students will learn basic life skills with the requested supplies. These items will help them develop and learn new and practical life skills such as cooking and preparing healthy meals.

Funding this project will definitely create lasting memories for my well deserving students.
