In our low-income school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. To assist with the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.
Many of my students are being raised in single-parent households and receive free lunch based on their socioeconomic status.
These things may prevent them from getting ahead early in life and may not provide them with the life experiences many of us see as typical.
From the minute they walk in the door of my classroom, I focus on my students' potential and growth while they are with me. I may not be able to control their home lives; however, I can certainly control their experiences during the school day. By doing this in a creative and positive way, I am hoping to inspire even our earliest learners to continue on a path of academic excellence.
My Project
Students need healthy snacks remain focused in class and gum helps us focus on learning. Healthy snacks like these snacks will ensure students will be successful in the classroom because they will have brain food.
Many times, students come to school without eating and have a hard time focusing on their learning.
Many students have meals at school and having these snacks will ensure my students will be successful. Students come to school to learn, and these healthy snacks will ensure they will be focused and ready to learn.
These snacks will make sure the students can think effectively. They will learn to know that their stomachs are full. Snacks help students focus on what they need to in the classroom.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
