My Project

I would like to offer my students a healthy snack during the day. Providing a snack to those who are not able to bring their own snack will help them focus on learning rather than being hungry.

Students are more successful when they when they are offered a snack during the day.

Sometimes they loose focus because they often get hungry before it is lunch time.

I have been offering my students mid morning snacks for many years and find that they are able to focus and continue learning throughout the day with a healthy snack.
