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

As I was shopping for this project, my students were watching me pick out items to add to the cart. They quickly became excited about what snacks were coming to our classroom and shared what they liked and disliked.

Allowing my students to be a part of the selection process is part of the reason I needed to make another project!

I am adamant about making sure my students needs and wants are met, and I love that I have the opportunity to provide them with healthy anal choices that will do just that. Please help me get them extra fruit snacks, cookies, and healthier options of chips.
