"The world is but a canvas to our imagination."—Henry David Thoreau
Learning continues when bellies are full!
My 5- and 6-year old Kindergarten students learn so much throughout the school year. They are hungry for learning and snacks. This time of year, our pantry is empty. We need to replenish our healthy snacks to be eaten throughout the day or sent home.

My Project
Our class is running low on snacks this time of year. Our pantry is empty.
We need healthy snacks like goldfish and fruit snacks!
As we are halfway through this school year, our snacks are dwindling. Many families donate snacks to our class throughout the year. Some families are not able to afford the extras like snacks. My students work hard throughout the day learning to read, write, and do math. By the end of a rigorous school day, they are starving. It's important to give the students healthy snacks to eat at school or take home on a daily basis. Also, we need wipes to clean up afterwards.
