Mr. R. from Bronx NY is requesting materials related to food, clothing & hygiene through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Snack Rewards Increase Learning

Help me give my students healthy snacks like Lesser Evil Popcorn, Welch's Fruit Snacks, and Pirate's Booty during the school day that will help motivate their learning and reward them for their progress.

My Project

I work in a Title I public school in the South Bronx. While we have a supportive community inside the school with caring teachers and administration, the NYCDOE only has so many funds to be distributed, and most of the time even the most financially needy schools are forgotten about. I love my students and the work ethic they have coming from an unbelievable amount of adversity growing up in a depressed South Bronx neighborhood.

This specific project will be used as an incentive and reward learning.

Many of the students I teach come from poverty and there is absolutely zero extra food. Snacks truly do not exist unless they are coming from the school itself. While our school has some snacks, there is not enough for all students and again they are victims of inequity. I will use snacks as a reward when students progress in their learning or show exemplary behavior.

Grades 9-12
