Hunger can be a major distraction. Providing snacks helps, maintain students, energy levels, allowing them to stay focused and engaged in their lessons. Nourished students are more likely to perform better academically. Snacks can help sustain energy levels, which is crucial for participating in class activities and completing assignments. Hunger can also contribute to irritability and behavioral issues. Regular snacks can help stabilize mood and improve classroom behavior, creating a more positive learning environment. Lastly, providing nutritious snacks can contribute to better overall health which can reduce absenteeism and promote consistent school attendance.
