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 am a speech-language pathologist and I work at an elementary school serving students with learning disabilities. Each and every day is a new adventure as they learn various strategies to improve their receptive and expressive language skills. I love seeing their faces light up as they begin to understand new concepts, produced sounds correctly in words, read, spelled words, or write sentences independently. However, many of my students express feeling hungry throughout the day which results in a lack of focus and mental stamina to learn. Sometimes my students just need a small treat such as a candy or a chocolate Hershey kiss as a "little pick me up" to help them get though the session. I tend to go through Hershey kisses quickly, so having that on hand to give my students would be so helpful. Also, just having a variety of snacks (such as fruit snacks, granola bars, cereal bars, Rice Krispies etc.) for my students to select will help nourish their bodies and give them the fuel needed to focus on their learning.
