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

This project for fidget toys and conversation cubes is designed to help students cultivate a growth mindset, a valuable skill that encourages perseverance and adaptability. By engaging in activities that promote this mindset, students will learn to embrace challenges and view setbacks as opportunities for growth. The benefits of developing a growth mindset extend beyond the classroom and play a crucial role in post-secondary planning. Students with a growth mindset are better equipped to navigate the complexities of higher education and future careers, ultimately leading to greater success and fulfillment in their personal and professional lives

Ms. Burke A Philip Randolph Campus High School Grades 9-12
