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
Providing my students with nutritious snacks during state testing days will help alleviate their anxiety and supply brain-boosting nutrients, enabling them to perform at their best. Research indicates that proper nutrition positively affects students' cognitive functions, behavior, and overall health, all of which are critical during exams.
My goal for this project is to ensure that my students remain satiated during tests, allowing them to concentrate fully on their tasks without the distraction of hunger.
Offering healthy snacks can help maintain their energy levels and focus throughout the testing period. What makes my students special is their unwavering dedication and effort. They consistently strive to do their best, and by providing them with these snacks, we can support their commitment and help them maximize their potential during these critical assessments.
