My Project

My students need snacks to remain focused and energized during their block class. Snacks like these will ensure students will be successful in their Health-Related Technology class because they will not be thinking about food and will be able to concentrate on what they are learning. These snacks will offer students a variety of healthy options to boost their energy. Students need healthy snacks and treats to remain focused in class.

Snacks can help encourage concentration.

Studies have shown that hungry students are not able to learn as well as students who have adequate amounts of food.

Such snacks as breakfast and granola bars provide energy and bring a big smile to their faces when they receive them. These snacks will help me make sure my students can concentrate and understand the information being taught in class.
