I have a wheel that I spin daily for students to pick something from our prize box. They are going crazy over the meme stickers and the GOGO Squeeze. When I added snacks to my cart, I explicitly thought about the school lunch at our school and how it is not designed to fulfill students' hunger, nor is it desirable. I wasn't sure if my students would like the granola bars and healthy snacks from the snack boxes, but they were a hot commodity! Many students saved their snacks to split with their siblings at the end of the school day and I even had students gift their fig bars to their parents. \r\n\r\nOn the flip side, I have also had kids tell me that some of the prizes are items they have always wanted but have never been able to afford. That is one of the most gratifying feelings so far.
