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

On May 8th, my students will take their AP Literature and Composition exam. They’ve worked hard all year, and I would love to treat them with some brain food for exam day. I’m gifting them pens, pencils, stickers, and a note from myself, but food will go a long way in these goodie bags! Most students will forget to bring snacks or forget to eat breakfast on test day. These snacks will ensure ALL students will food in their bellies on an important day that we’ve been working all year for.
