Please Fuel Our Learning Through Healthy Snacks!

My Students

As a teacher in a low-income school district, I see that my students are faced with many challenges both in and out of the classroom. We spend a big part of the day together, and one of my goals is to always provide them with authentic, meaningful experiences on a daily basis.

My students are inquisitive, curious and very eager to learn.

They love to learn about new things and especially love hands on activities. Many of my students are being raised in single parent households and receive a free lunch based on their socioeconomic status. Unfortunately, some of these things may prevent them from acquiring the life experiences many of us see as "typical". From the minute they walk into my classroom my job is to not only teach them but to make their day a memorable one. I want them to leave my class on a daily basis thinking "learning is fun".

My Project

I teach in a high poverty area. Half of my kindergarten students do no eat breakfast or bring a snack to school. Although we are a title one school and 100 percent of our students are eligible for free breakfast/lunch many of my students do not arrive to school on time to eat breakfast.

I notice that they are lethargic and not attentive to the daily lessons.

They often complain of hunger pains too. As soon as I give them something to eat they become alert and feel so much better. They often tell me that they did not dinner. Could you imagine not eating dinner or breakfast?

Having these healthy snacks handy would be of great use because I will send them home with the kids to help them keep full on nights they don't have dinner.
