My Project

I love when my students arrive to class full of energy and ready to learn. They are attentive, funny and nicer. They follow the lesson and retain information better. Being hungry during class can be the biggest distraction for our students. They have energy to retain the harder concepts. But when they arrive depleted from the previous class they need a pick me up. I wish I could give my students that little push to get through the day by supplying a little snack for their brain. These snack will give my students the energy they need to tackle difficult lessons or subject especially during testing season.
