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 Students

I have the wonderful opportunity of working as the Crisis Intervention Teacher of K-5 students in the Special Education District for NYC. My students come from various backgrounds and most are considered to be in the low-socio economic status range. I work with the students in person every day on improving their social emotional skills. I'm extremely proud of the growth that they are able to make day by day. They continue to show perseverance in the face of adversity.

My Project

Throughout the day sometimes students get hungry at times when it is not a meal time (i.e. during Science class). However, we are taught in teacher education school that a child can not learn if their basic needs are not met (hunger being one of them). Some students do come to school with snack for these purposes and some do not. So in trying to provide equity among the students and fulfill their snack need I am looking for snacks for the students in these instances. That way we can snack our way to academic success!
