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

I love my students' positive and energetic spirit, which makes our classroom a vibrant learning environment. To support them during testing, I plan to provide snacks that will help maintain their energy levels and focus. Snacks such as granola bars, fruit gummies, and popcorn will not only offer a quick source of nutrition but also serve as a morale booster, making the testing experience more enjoyable and less stressful. By having these resources available, I aim to create a supportive atmosphere where students feel cared for and motivated to perform their best.

The specific items I am requesting will make a significant difference in my students' learning by providing them with the necessary fuel to stay energized and focused during assessments.

My goal for this project is to reduce anxiety and enhance concentration, ensuring that each student can showcase their knowledge without distraction. What makes my students special is their resilience and enthusiasm for learning; they approach each challenge with a smile. By providing snacks during testing, I hope to honor their hard work and encourage them to continue striving for excellence.
