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

Our students have been rocking it this school year! Every day they are working to come to school, apply their best, and reach goals! Towards the end of the school year, our students will take the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness, STAAR. If you've ever taken a 4-hour long test, multiple days in a row, then you know how hungry they make you!

Our students have worked through many challenges this school year from sickness to learning gaps, let's ease one less stress and help provide snacks and an "I'm done" sweet treat!

The 2008 online article by ScienceLine.org titled "Do you burn more calories when you think hard?" states "Brain processes such as thinking are fueled by glucose, a simple sugar found in food. Prolonged thought requires more insulin, which may explain why completing the hardest task made subjects hungrier."

Question and answer!

This project will bring a snack to each student, covering all days of testing, and a sweet treat after the last day of testing. Thank you for looking at our project!
