My Project

Some students don't eat breakfast or lunch at school. Every child needs to eat something during the day. By giving them those Cheez-It baked snack, they will do better work if their belly is feeling full. Testing is coming up so I feel if they have a snack while working on assignments they will do better work.

My class is where the students recover the classes they didn't pass.

Some students don't have food to eat. So, I think giving them something to eat till lunch or after lunch will be beneficial to their tummy. So please help my students.
