My Project
After teaching for nearly twenty-eight years, I understand, if a child is hungry, he/she may not be able to focus on the lesson that is being taught at the time. Some of my students have to eat at school, because food is scarce at home. Hence, I have always shared whatever food I have in my class with students.
If a child has a healthy snack, he/she may be able to focus better in class and the students’ attention won't be focused on being hungry.
I have always placed emphasis on teaching the "whole child".
Nearly all students from low‑income households
