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 a 25 year teacher, I can tell when my students are hungry, especially students in kindergarten and first grade. They look tired and unmotivated, they are unable to focus and lack excitement even during their favorite subjects. Many, many times students do not eat the school’s lunches, and in a way it is hard to blame them. Keeping healthy snack options in my classroom is hard because most of them are biodegradable and school rules prohibit us from keeping food in the classroom. However, I always try to have something for them in class. Trail Mix, cookies and chocolates are a good option for a pick me up and a way to get through the day.
