These healthy snacks will quell the hunger that often distracts students and makes them too cranky to focus. When kids walk into the classroom, they come straight to the teacher's desk where they know there will be a nutritious snack waiting. Once they have gotten a boost of energy, their hands go up for questions, their writing gets longer and more complex, and the vibe in the classroom becomes happily cooperative. Students are learning that when their body is hungry and their brain is low on fuel, healthy snacks like dried cranberries and mangoes are the best way to get back in the zone. They often tell me that the snacks are a bright spot in their day at school, what they don't yet realize is that their brains are reacting to the nutrition by thinking in more complex ways not possible when hunger distracts them.
