My Project

Many times students miss the bus and come to school late. Being able to offer them a Pop Tart is a great way to get something in their bellies so they can focus on class work.

Throughout the day students get antsy and hungry too!

Having a little snack can help get them back on track in the classroom.

I have actually seen students being able to focus on reading better if they have a little mint or small piece of hard candy.

My alternative school students really respond to little treats as rewards too! It helps motivate them!
