This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
My students are mostly minority students and most of them come from a low-income family background. They are very active and enjoy coming to school and learning science.
They are always ready to learn new skills and explore new opportunities, but the unavailability of resources makes it hard for them to understand some of the abstract concepts that I teach; therefore, the need to explain the concepts in ways that make them real, captivating and interesting becomes imperative.
My students enjoy completing class projects that involve hands-on experiments, programming, art and research, which helps them express their understanding of chemistry concepts in their own way by creating new meanings of their discoveries.
My Project
My project is about helping my students get necessary nutrition to eat and drink after school. Some of my students stay after school for activities and review for testing. They are usually hungry and need healthy snacks and juice to help them cope through the day.
According to research, “when children do not get enough to eat, their mental and physical health suffers.
They see smaller gains academically and they struggle to learn, concentrate and adapt to their surroundings”
That is why I really need your help to get necessary nutrition for my students so that they would stay healthy and focused in school. My students need nutritional snacks such as crackers, Lay's chips, nuts and juice to stay healthy and focus on their academic work.
