La profesora de Brian, de cuatro a\u00f1os, la Srta. LaToya, no se sorprendi\u00f3 cuando vio el contenido de su bolsa de almuerzo: una bolsita de arroz blanco y medio perrito caliente.<\/p>\n
\"Brian ir\u00eda a la escuela de 7.00 a 18.00 horas y el contenido de su peque\u00f1a bolsa de almuerzo deb\u00eda cubrir el desayuno, la merienda de la ma\u00f1ana, el almuerzo y la merienda de la tarde.<\/em>.\" Ella dijo. \"Sab\u00eda que tendr\u00eda que conseguirle algo extra porque su cuerpecito tendr\u00eda hambre, pero eso era bastante t\u00edpico. En el caso de nuestros alumnos, no es raro que tengamos que complementar sus comidas con los bocadillos de la clase o ir a la gasolinera de al lado a comprar un Lunchable con nuestro propio dinero. Los alumnos hambrientos no pueden aprender, y cada minuto de aprendizaje es imprescindible para nuestros alumnos.<\/em>.\"<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
La Escuela Melinda Webb del Centro de Audici\u00f3n y Lenguaje cuenta con 44 alumnos sordos de preescolar de entre 18 meses y 6 a\u00f1os inscritos en su programa de intervenci\u00f3n temprana y es el \u00fanico recurso de Houston que ofrece un servicio completo para ense\u00f1ar a los ni\u00f1os sordos a escuchar y hablar sin utilizar el lenguaje de signos. A trav\u00e9s de sus programas, los ni\u00f1os sordos adquieren habilidades para escuchar, hablar y leer y escribir, herramientas esenciales que necesitan para mejorar su calidad de vida. La escuela trabaja para ayudar a cada alumno a demostrar su dominio de las destrezas esenciales, de modo que est\u00e9n preparados para un entorno de aula tradicional. Los alumnos llevan implantes cocleares que cuestan decenas de miles de d\u00f3lares en cirug\u00eda, equipos y terapia. Muchas de las familias de nuestros alumnos se enfrentan a dificultades econ\u00f3micas debido a los considerables gastos m\u00e9dicos asociados al tratamiento y las terapias.<\/p>\n
La Srta. SarahBeth, otra profesora, experiment\u00f3 problemas similares en su clase de preescolares, \"Tenemos familias monoparentales, as\u00ed como varias que gastan su dinero en gasolina conduciendo una distancia considerable todos los d\u00edas para acceder a nuestra escuela para sus hijos sordos. Es habitual que los alumnos lleguen con muy poca comida, o con productos poco saludables del men\u00fa de un d\u00f3lar de los restaurantes de comida r\u00e1pida debido a la asequibilidad. Uno de mis alumnos de 2 a\u00f1os llevaba una loncha de mortadela y un pu\u00f1ado de Cheerios en la bolsa del almuerzo porque era todo lo que su familia pod\u00eda permitirse ese d\u00eda. La comida basura suele ser mucho m\u00e1s barata<\/em>.\"<\/p>\n
Alrededor de 50% de los alumnos reciben almuerzos Kids' Meals.<\/p>\n
\"Kids' Meals ha supuesto una diferencia incre\u00edble en la eficacia de nuestras aulas<\/em>\", dijo la se\u00f1orita SarahBeth. \"Los ni\u00f1os son alumnos m\u00e1s receptivos que aprenden, juegan y duermen mejor gracias a las comidas sanas que reciben regularmente. Su comportamiento y su capacidad de concentraci\u00f3n han cambiado notablemente. Antes de Kids' Meals, mis alumnos no eleg\u00edan alimentos sanos y varios no tomaban leche. Ahora est\u00e1n orgullosos de comer alimentos sanos y beber toda su leche.<\/em>.\"<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Lindy Douglas, Directora de Educaci\u00f3n del centro, est\u00e1 encantada con los resultados. \"Los a\u00f1os preescolares son insustituibles desde el punto de vista del aprendizaje, y a\u00fan m\u00e1s esenciales para preparar a los alumnos sordos a participar con \u00e9xito en las aulas con compa\u00f1eros oyentes. Que nuestros alumnos est\u00e9n bien alimentados y puedan concentrarse es fundamental para su salud y su \u00e9xito en el aula. Nos encanta Kids' Meals y hemos visto un impacto incre\u00edble en el rendimiento en el aula.<\/em>.\"<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
