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

Some of my students don't eat breakfast and lunch every day. Sometimes, based on allergies, religion, or tastes, my students would not be able to eat some of the food provided in school. Having breakfast tarts, cakes, cookie and water will allow my students to have a meal in school. The deodorant and toothpaste will help my students stay fresh and clean in their time of need. This will also help the student to be able to concentrate on their classes and not worry about their stomachs growling with hunger or feeling sweaty.

A healthy mind and body will help my students be successful as they enter the classroom.
