It is very difficult to concentrate when you are hungry and trying to complete your work. Towards the end of the day, the students begin to get a little hungry and start loosing focus on the lesson and their work. A quick little snack break will allow the students to focus for the rest of the day. This project will allow me to offer my students a snack break in order to regain their focus and not worry about being hungry. I have also included popcorn that we can use with our popcorn machine in order to teach the 5 senses and providing a delicious freshly popped popcorn at the same time!
