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

The afternoon section of my 8th Grade Social Studies class, meets at noon - 4 hours after students have breakfast. Students are expected to meet the academically rigorous demands of the course - on an empty stomach !

Thanks to your help, at the start of class, each student receives a snack bar (they can have two if they wish), to fuel them until their lunch period.

Now that snacks are part of our regular class routine, I have noticed lethargic students find the energy to focus on their work. I have seen students able to engage with the academic content with clarity. Students are working in groups, having supportive and insightful conversations about their work.

It is with much warmth and gratitude that we send this letter of appreciation. Thank you so much for your support.
