We often refer to Maslow's hierarchy of needs when we discuss this. The base of this hierarchy of needs is basic physiological human needs such as having food. \r\n\r\n\r\nThis project provided snacks for students in our behavior program. These children spend an hour to two hours every day with me in my classroom first thing in the morning. They often come into our classroom with some basic needs not being met such as being hungry, needing to finish getting ready, and some just need a place where they can be themselves without repercussions. This project allowed me to meet the most basic of their human needs, which is having food. Because the students were able to fill a basic need of theirs, they were able to move on to engage academically. During my program this year, the students had a passing percentage rate of 68% for all their academic classes. This is an increase from the 50% passage rate. The students were also able to engage and acquire additional credits to help them graduate on time. Cumulatively, the students in my behavior program earned 19 additional credits needed to help them be back on track for graduation. This is a huge success as many of them are credit deficient due to their behaviors impeding their learning. \r\n\r\n \r\nWhen I put this project together, I asked the students what type of snacks they wanted to eat. They all contributed to the list of things they liked to eat. If they mentioned a snack, I made sure it was on the list. When the snacks arrived and the students not only had something to eat but also had the snacks that they asked for, many of them were shocked. They were so grateful that not only were they able to get a snack, but it was one that they had asked for. This project allowed me to give them an agency and a voice in their school day which is something that they often get to experience. I am eternally grateful for your generosity in providing snacks for my students.","fullyFundedDate":1762874885794,"projectUrl":"project/behavior-kids-snacks/9862737/","projectTitle":"Behavior Kids Snacks","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Capps","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4189349_orig.jpg?crop=240,240,x0,y40&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1764852591443","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4189349"},{"teacherId":1023391,"projectId":9840521,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous contribution towards our class project, \"A Variety of Books = Many Open Doors and Windows!\" You have helped to provide a set of 8 books from a variety of authors targeted at the audience of high school students.
