Celebrating 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.
It might first appear that my kindergarten and first grade students have all odds stacked against them. However, no one should judge a book by its cover. The majority of my students are given many labels (at-risk, special education, second language learners, Title I students, etc.) but what really defines them is their positive attitude, curious spirit and work ethic.
Every day my students fight the stereotypes that others use to define them and then succeed despite any hardships they do face.
My Project
My students need snacks like Betty Crocker Fruit Variety Pack Snacks, Stauffer's Animal Crackers Variety, GoGo squeeZ Applesauce anlong ith other snacks for their hungry bellies and energy for their brains! One of my roles as a special education teacher is to level the playing field in the classroom so that all students have the opportunity to learn. One obstacle I encounter on a daily basis is hunger.
If my students' bellies are hungry, they aren't able to do their best.
I use many of these snacks as motivators and "rewards" to encourage my students to work even harder in class.
I always try to provide my students with healthy options that are school approved. However, these snacks are usually more expensive and up until this point, my team and I have purchased these out of our families budgets. Please consider helping us conquer childhood hunger!
