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 students often visit me daily for attention, comfort, and nourishment. Often times they miss breakfast because they were late to school OR are not able to eat the lunch that was served in the school's cafeteria.

Being able to offer them a choice of snack will supply my students a quick break where they can reset and focus on their learning.

Food and love are often connected because we use food to celebrate, bond, and show affection. As children we were often rewarded with a treat, were consoled with food, bonded over food during celebrations, or expressed our love with food.

A goal of mine is to build trusting relationships with my students and often times offering a snack allows me to start a conversation which often times leads to building a relationship with them.
