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 need snacks to remain focused and energized during the school day. Snacks like these will ensure students will be successful in school because they will have brain food. These snacks will offer students a variety of snacks that will give them a bigger boost during their school day.

Students in middle school love to snack, and I hope that having snacks will motivate and redirect their focus on completing daily assignments.

Snacks can help encourage concentration and re-energize tired students. Snacks, such as chips, pretzels, crackers, etc., always bring a big smile to their faces. These snacks will help me make sure my students are always full and ready to learn!
