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 have a excited group of second graders who are eager to learn and have fun. Everyday I try to provide a healthy start to their day by making sure they have access to a healthy snack, such as fig bars, crackers, and breakfast bars, that will nurture their body making sure they can make it through the first part of the day all the way until lunch time; which will help me make sure they are ready to learn.

I believe in having basic meets first as I pay attention the each students diverse needs in the classroom.
