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

My students need healthy snacks to remain focused and energized during school. Healthy snacks like these snacks will ensure students will be successful in school because they will have brain food. These snacks will offer students a variety of healthy snacks or snacks that will give them a bigger boost during their school day. Students need healthy snacks and treats to remain focused in class.

Snacks can help encourage concentration and re-energize tired students

And need new pens and pencils for the kids here for some reason they always disappear.
