My Project

Many of my students come to school hungry. They are constantly asking me if I have food, which I don't. I will often give them bites of my lunch in the morning. This is not enough for everyone and leaves me without a lunch. Providing them these snacks would positively affect their learning. Their brains would be more ready to learn but they would also be happy and grateful and would be more likely to pay attention and do their math assignments. This would ultimately positively affect their social emotional well being too.
