Many of my students receive free or reduced lunch and eat all of their breakfast and lunch each day. They still are hungry in the hours between breakfast and lunch and nearing the end of the school day.
Student concentration and learning is greatly inhibited when hunger distracts them. Having a snack will hep students have the energy and and ability to focus throughout the day and achieve more learning gains.
Parents are strained supplying the snacks for the full year, especially when it is only a few parents are able to contribute. I try to supply snacks when none are available, but I hope to have more of my own funds to purchase learning and organizing supplies when needed.
Thank you for considering our class!
