This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
I have amazing students! Most of them are Title I and aren't able to bring snacks to school. Our school day is from 7:30-2:45. Imagine going that long with just a school lunch and no snacks. I plan to offer snacks during each class. This is only enough for a few days but, they appreciate anything they receive.
Our classes are one and a half hours long.
When transitioning from one topic to another (usually mid-way through) I want to offer them snacks. I will also give a few extra to a select few students to bring home on Fridays. Some of our families do not have enough food to feed their children on the weekends.
