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 Students

My awesome second graders come from a very low socioeconomic background with the majority falling below the poverty line. They are mainly English language learners (80%) and many of them live in homes which house multiple families under the same roof. The median income is well below poverty level, with some being homeless. Some of these seven- and eight-year olds have the sole responsibility of taking care of their younger siblings while their parents are working, with many parents working more than one job. Others are latchkey children.

Our school is Title I and 90% of the children receive free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch.

In addition to the many challenges that these hard-working students face, they also are coping with the fact that our school is situated in a high crime area with frequent gang activity. My children have extremely limited access to technology in their homes, yet with all these obstacles, my students come to school with much enthusiasm and an eager desire to learn.

My Project

Our 2nd graders come from all walks of life. They are rambunctious and very energetic. Some have ADHD, autism and various learning disabilities. These students come from disadvantaged homes where good emphasis on nutrition is not a primary focus due to financial difficulty or lack of education. Statistics have shown that foods that are rich in fiber and protein can help kids with ADHD stay alert, calm, and focused. So this is why I along with my colleagues are asking for protein bars, Goldfish crackers, Welch’s fruit snacks and Planter mixed variety packs to keep on hand for both their appetite and their ADHD. Also in addition to eating healthy snacks will help provide them with energy for learning which brings success for all. I am also asking for jump ropes so that our second graders can get their wiggles out and stay fit too. Please help me to promote healthy eating and exercise for all!
