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

My fifth graders have recently expressed an interest in learning how to crochet, and they have gone wild with excitement in their quest to learn this new craft!

Our Comets Crochet Crew began meeting during lunch a few weeks ago, and we have had such an overwhelming response, we are in need of additional resources!

Thirty students have shown up to learn the craft of crocheting, and everyone is welcome regardless of their experience. Students were given a crochet hook, yarn, and a bag to carry their supplies in, as well as a Comets Crochet Crew QR code, which includes several links to tutorial videos for beginner projects. When students complete one of these projects, I wish to offer them more advanced projects.

I am requesting additional crochet hooks and yarn, as well as beginner kits to make crochet animals such as pandas, frogs, hedgehogs, and bunnies to offer challenges to more ambitious students.

Thank you so much for your kindness and support for our students! I am very grateful for your generosity, and I know our students will be, as well, when resources arrive and we are able to offer more choices for children at all levels of learning.

“The level of our success is limited only by our imagination and no act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted.”-Aesop.
