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

I teach two groups of 6th grade Math and Social Studies students. Our school is located in a low-income/high-crime area. I see that my students are faced with several challenges, both inside and outside the classroom. However, I do all that I can to provide an environment that is consistent, fun and engaging so they can get the most out of their days in my room.

My students are creative, clever, and very unique.

They like to move and they love to receive lots of positive attention. Many of them are being raised in single-parent households, some from non English-speaking families. They all receive a free breakfast and lunch based on their socioeconomic status.

My Project

It's hard to think that some of my students don't have proper food at home. I would like to be able to provide some basic items for my students to take home and have when needed. Something simple such as peanut butter and jelly crackers will give my students something in their stomaches so they can concentrate on their learning instead of their hungry stomachs.

Something so small makes a big difference in the lives of my students.

I am asking for small sleeves of Ritz crackers, Peanut Butter, Jelly, pre-made peanut butter crackers. Rice cakes are a great healthy snack that my students love.
