My Project

My students are curious and thoughtful. However, I have noticed that more and more students are coming to my room hungry and asking how long before lunch. I want to be able to provide them with a small item to tide them over until their lunch time.

My students want to do well and by being able to just offer a small snack to help get their mind off their hunger can go along way to helping them focus on the lesson at hand.

It is amazing how such a small treat can go to helping kids be successful.
