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 are English language learners that need a little more than other students. They tend to have poor diets and skip meals or eat really terrible snacks.

I want to be able to provide delicious and healthy treats that I can give to them as rewards for their hard work and also to bake for them and bring them in fresh.

I think it's really important that I share with them why I choose these specific items and teach them about choosing cleaner food products to enjoy. I can't wait to introduce these delicious new treats to them.
