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

I Teach at the tip of Texas in Title I school, where most of our students are economically disadvantaged. Each one is a special individual coming from a different background.

A typical day in my classroom begins with my students walking in with a huge smile on their faces eager to begin their day no matter the obstacles they face.

As their teacher, my goal is to provide my students with genuine 21st century experience and help them reach their full potential! Therefore, I feel honored to be part of their learning journey.

My Project

I am requesting a Cricut Explore Machine, hot press, vinyl supplies and accessories to help my students create one of a kind t-shirts, exciting bulletin boards and personalize their material.

This Cricut Explore will help my students make unimaginable creations!

My students will be using this Cricut machine to bring their science projects to life. We will also use it during our math and reading lessons to make their learning more hands on. In addition, we will also use this machine to personalize their school material such as binders, tubs, pencil bags and make our class t-shirts in a unique and fun way!
