My Students

I have twenty-five amazing first graders who are energetic, enthusiastic, motivated, and of course unique and special. My students like to move, twist, stand, sit, and, most importantly, learn. My students have lots of movement opportunities throughout the school day and mostly learn in stations. My students are in an urban community, and all students receive free lunch and breakfast. The students in my classroom range from regular education to ESL to special education. My high expectations and drive bring me to this project for my students.

My Project

My first graders need snacks to have in the classroom for when they forget to bring one to school or don't have any at home. My students receive free lunch and breakfast. At snack time many of them come with nothing.

This project gives my students a snack to eat at snack time when they forget theirs or don't have one.

It is important to have something to eat when hungry so they can get the best out of their learning. These snacks will be kept in the classroom for students to eat as needed each day! Thank you for supporting my students!
