My Project

My students come to school hungry and try to consume as much meals as they can before they go home. The students get free breakfast and they get lunch. I give them an intermission where they will have a snack. They look forward to intermission. At the end of the day they want to take snacks home to eat. This project will help cure the appetite and their hunger. No one likes to learn on an empty stomach. They will have energy to complete their assignments and they will fill secure that they have enough to eat on school days. Most of my students get most of their meals at school.
