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

The items will be used in different ways and at different times. I have notice that during the day students are always complaining about not having breakfast or not having lunch. It is beneficial to have snacks to satiate hunger. During exams students get anxious and having something to munch on relieves the anxiety. In the opposite, having to sit for an exam for two or more hours can be boring for some, but having something to snack on can help you keep up the good work. Nonetheless, during after-school hours students are always hungry, and their development requires at least 1800 calories during the day. Please help me supply for my very hungry caterpillars/ students.
