My Project

Help our scholars to grow their brains by filling their tummies! I teach 24 bright and beautiful children in a high-need area of New York. While all of my students receive free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch, some of our families are financially unable to give their children snacks for the day, and my students are often hungry throughout the day. My students need snacks such as Cheez-its, crackers, cookies, and treats to keep them energized for learning all day long!

If we can make sure they get a snack, they will be able to better focus and really build the fundamental knowledge necessary for them to go onto the next grade and continue to be successful throughout school.

Snacks enable the students to become more engaged in classroom activities. The snacks can help students to grow and develop more skills in the classroom. The snacks can help promote fewer behavior problems. These snacks would allow our students to have enough energy to keep on learning throughout the day and grow their brains!

This project is important because our students have a very long day and need some different yummy snacks to help them stay engaged in learning. If we can give them the smallest thing like an afternoon snack, they will be able to keep up their energy and learn even more in the exhausting afternoons.

Thank you so much for your support!

Ms. Ry PS 163 Arthur Schomberg - Annex Grades PreK-2
