My Project
Having my students be prepared to learn is critical in their academic lives. This includes making sure that they have gotten a small snack to eat when they are hungry to help them make it to lunchtime in our academic day. Each and every academic minute counts. I would like to be able to take the distraction of a rumbling, noisy tummy out of their schooling.
Even though we have first lunch, we also have specials right after lunch.
Some of these specials use up a lot of movement which burns energy that needs to be replenished in order to make it through the rest of our academic day. By having snacks within the classroom, my students' families will not have to send their child to school with those really large bags of snacks, you know, the family-size ones that they bring to school since that is the size they see first in their kitchen at home. I'd like to provide my students with these smaller snack alternatives to help them make healthier lifestyle choices on their own.
