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 took a class on Social Emotional Learning this summer which taught me so much about inclusion in the classroom. As an advisor, I want to make sure my students feel loved, respected, and welcomed. During our icebreaker of "This or That", students chose pancakes over waffles, which gave me an idea: Pancake Mondays! We will make pancakes during the first period on Mondays in Advisory. Students even asked if they could serve breakfast to teachers and students nearby-- of course, I said yes to community building! Though this helps them build a community and start the week together, I also understand the value of food security, nutrition, and mental health. Can you support me with this?

I used resources from the course I took and ideas from colleagues to come up with a list of essentials for our classroom griddle to make pancakes, conversation starter cards, sand (for sensory), cough drops and hot cocoa for the upcoming winter , and snacks for physical and mental health

Your help and dedication to the well-being of students will be greatly appreciated!
