Help me give my students some low-sugar snacks for recess and lunch.

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

Over the last few weeks I've noticed that many of my students are very hungry and most don't bring a snack to school.

Help me stock up on some low sugar snacks in my classroom for when students are in need of a little meal.

Students learn best when they are comfortable and fed. My students are 4-5 years old and burn off their lunch quick during play and throughout the day. This can help them have something in their system to have the energy to finish off the day strong!
