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
"Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” - Maya Angelou. This quote from Maya Angelou is our class motto. My objective is for my students to continue to be motivated and challenged so that they can keep boosting their own confidence and achieving success to fully develop their self-potential.
I teach a group of special education students who experience learned helplessness every day because they were told that their disability hinders their learning.
In reality, all they truly need is to rediscover the joy of learning. And once that light bulb clicks, my students can bring a positive classroom energy that continually inspires and motivates others. Our school provides such a stimulating, collaborative, and safe environment for students of various differences and abilities that students are often celebrated for their diversity and achievements. I work for a school where teachers put students first.
My Project
My students require healthy snacks such as fruit snacks, crackers, and juice packs to keep them energized and focused on learning all day long! It will also increase their attention, motivation, and help build the fundamental knowledge necessary for them to be successful throughout the school day.
This project is important because our students are in school for 6 hours and they need a variety of healthy snacks to keep them engaged in learning.
If I can continue to provide my students with as many healthy snack options, they will be able to keep up their energy and their ability to learn because their bellies are full and their minds are motivated especially during those exhausting afternoons. You will also be impacting 35 full and happy scholars in this project!
