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 Project

Snacks are a way of connecting to my kids. It is not simply food that fills their stomach, it is also a way of seeing that their teacher cares about them. Whenever I can, I store some snacks in my classroom just in case a student is hungry. I also make use of these snacks as "rewards" for their hard work and job well done in the classroom.

Help me create an atmosphere of care, support, and association with my kids by making this simple project possible through your assistance!
