My Project
My students absolutely love snacks! Ever since school started, they have eaten all of my personal snacks. Providing my students with snacks in the classroom helps them throughout the day when they are hungry and for most students, there is not enough time in the morning to eat a whole meal. Many of my students experience feelings of stress when they are hungry, so providing them with a snack helps alleviate them.
My students have also been participating in student teaching in my classroom, in which I have given out snacks for rewards.
This has become huge in my classroom and my students are filled with excitement when they are able to teach a lesson to their peers. If my students eat and become happier, learning would be more efficient, as students would feel content and more ready to learn. Students would also be able to focus more, as they would not be distracted by waiting for lunch or dinner time to come around. I love seeing my students filled with joy when I am able to give them a snack!
