Snacks to Sustain Learning

Help me give my students snacks to help fill my human needs cupboard and keep their minds on learning rather than empty stomaches.

My Project

My previous project to create a "human-needs cupboard" has been a huge success. Students have been quietly hitting up the cupboard for anything they may need in order to feel their best and be more successful learners, and that means restocking needs to happen.

I am convinced that we must ensure human needs first before we can expect our students to be ready to learn!

The success of my cupboard means students have access to the basic need supplies, but it also means that it needs to be refilled. My students seem to always be complaining about their hunger, and it is hard to concentrate on the classroom with growling tummies. These snacks will help sustain them and help them focus on learning.
