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

Clipboards and snacks in the classroom are crucial tools for fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment. Clickboards enable interactive learning, promoting active participation and enhanced understanding. Meanwhile, providing snacks in the classroom has a profound impact on students' well-being and focus. As someone who has consistently provided snacks for two years, I have witnessed firsthand the positive effects it has on students' energy levels, motivation, and overall academic performance. Snacks help ensure that students are fueled and focused, allowing them to engage in the learning process fully. More moreover, this small gesture shows students that their well-being is valued, creating a sense of community and belonging in the classroom. By combining clickboards and snacks, I would like to create a dynamic and nurturing environment that supports students' academic and personal growth.
