Snacks for Success

Help me give my students snacks to help them stay focused in class.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Dennis's classroom raised $319

My Project

Many of my students either come to school hungry or get hungry throughout the school day. They are little and it is hard for some of them to get through the whole school day without having a snack. I am requesting snacks such as animal crackers, Pringles, graham crackers, cookies, pretzels, cereals and more. These kinds of snacks are easy to eat as students are doing their classwork. I have also added coffee filters to the list because we use them as bowls for the snacks. They are perfect for little hands.

Please help to give my students snacks to help them stay focused on learning during the school day.

It is very difficult to stay focused if you are thinking about how hungry you are. These snacks will last most of the school year. I know each child in my class will be grateful to have a small snack in the afternoon, or any time as needed.
