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
My third-grade students will be taking the state tests in a couple of weeks. This will be their first time taking such a test and many are feeling anxious. Healthy snacks support brain function. Children need snacks to keep their busy bodies and minds going. Healthy snacking can help kids get important nutrients, make up for skipped meals, and provide necessary fuel for learning, sports and other activities.
My goals for this project are simple: provide healthy snacks for my students to eat before and during testing.
Many of my students are on the free and reduced lunch program. In addition, they also come to school often without having had a nutritious breakfast. Providing snacks to them will help them with their performance on the test and feel better about taking the test.
