My Project

Please help me provide some snacks for my students when they are hungry.

It is hard to focus on sounding out words when your tummy needs food.

These snacks will provide my students with a mid-morning or mid-afternoon snack.

A group of students will become service starts and create care packages with essentials and snacks for other students in need. Students should have access to food when their tummies are hungry. Students should not have to worry about where their food is coming from, they should be able focus on learning.
