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

Thank you in advance for supplying my classroom with snacks during our day. They are so active and joyful 3rd graders, they get hungry almost an hour after lunch. I do my best with apples and cookies but it proving to be costly.

I try and give my students snacks as rewards for active participation and wonderful behavior in the classroom and throughout the school day.

It doesn't take a lot to put a smile on their face and as a teacher its my job to keep that smilie shining.
