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. These items will be stored safely and will aid with this cause.

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.

As we begin a new school year and start thinking of upcoming events; maintaining a supply of snacks will ensure that everyone has the energy, motivation, and drive to keep working and focusing on the goals at hand. I want my students to be focused as we begin our new units of study and learn about various cultures and customs from around the world.
