My Project

The importance of maintaining a supply of snacks in the classroom is so important to my students for so many reasons. First, our day starts very early in the morning, and some students wake up too late to eat breakfast; therefore, the snacks will eliminate any child missing an important meal. Also, students usually return from gym class or recess needing a pick-me-up to get through the rest of the day. These items will be stored safely and will aid with this cause. While the deodorant sprays will be available for any child who may need to refresh after gym or recess.

One of my biggest priorities is making sure that my students have everything they need to reach their goals and have success in the classroom.

Maintaining a supply of snacks will ensure that everyone has the energy, motivation and drive to keep working and focusing on the goals in hand. We will be able to track our progress and days with the calendar requested to ensure our success for the school year.
