Games & Snacks for Rise and Shine Mornings

Help me give my students snacks and games to play during our "Rise and Shine" morning club.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Grohs's classroom raised $581

This project is fully funded

My Project

My goal for this project is to provide games for the students that attend my morning program called Rise and Shine. I meet with a small group of students before school starts to help them get ready for the day. We try to start off the day with a game, snack or just chatting so they can have a productive rest of the day.

My Rise and Shine program helps students that are nervous about starting the day or struggle to get up in the morning.

I feel adding games such as Phase 10, Straw connector STEM and the Power Pen activities will encourage my students to arrive on time. Plus, the one-to-one time with me will help with nerves about starting the day. Snacks always make everything better so I'm requesting a variety of snacks that my students have mentioned that they like to eat for breakfast.
