My Students
My third graders are a great group of students! My classroom is made up of thirty eager third graders. I also have a wide range of reading and math abilities in my classroom. My reading levels range from pre-kindergarten to fourth grade. It's important that I read with these children every day to get them on grade level by the end of the year. Many of my students are very low readers, speak English as a second language, and get free or reduced-price lunch. All my students will do anything for anybody, especially the ESL students. We are always bringing the best out of everyone. Despite my students' backgrounds, they all have one thing in common, and that is their love of learning and helping others.
My Project
This year I want to teach my students about Nutrition and Wellness. I need to create recipes that can be prepared, and blended in a certain time frame. The blenders can help me achieve this goal. From shakes to smoothies, these blenders can take ingredients that students shy away from (fruits and vegetables) and when combined with other foods, can help make incredible, healthy, tasty creations. Considering that many of the children I teach do not really have the ability to make these notorious snakes at home. Allowing the students to prepare healthy meals containing nutrients that will give them the energy to be productive and focused throughout their day is extremely important. Students will be able to have nutritious meals with physical well being. Please help me make this project come true!
