My Project

When a students walks into my classroom, after our greetings, one of the first things I ask each kid is “Did you eat breakfast today?” I know the answer to this question is a fierce factor in determining what trajectory the day could have.

‘Studies published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Pediatrics, and the Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry show that hunger greatly impacts a child’s performance and behavior in school.

“Hungry children have lower math scores. They are also are more likely to repeat a grade, come to school late, or miss it entirely” due to illness.’

These snacks will help support students learning, focus, and nutritional intake. I want to have items available at all times so students have autonomy over this part of self-care, whether that is at first entry for breakfast, or recess for snack, or even on their way out the door in the afternoon!
