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 am a kindergarten teacher in a low-income public school in the Bronx. My class is filled with 25 vibrant, eager learners. My students needs are important for me.

No student should say, “My stomach hurts.” I usually hear this from my students once I ask them, “did you have breakfast?” A lot of them say no.

This makes me sad. Because I don’t want my students to feel hungry or thirsty. This is why I always give them cereal or pretzels. I try to provide my students with whatever I can give them.

My Project

I am requesting some essential objects for my students which will help them with their struggle of food. I want to provide my students their own individual snack for breakfast. This will help my students become focus in class. My students are not focused in the morning because of the lack of food in their system. My students needs are valued to me. They are important and heard. I will like to provide my students with food, incentives, snacks, and utensils which they will be able to use while having a snack in the morning.

My students and I will be grateful with your support.

You will be providing my students with the essentials they need which is food in order for them to focus in class. My students needs are important and heard.
