How to introduce snacks in your classroom
Offering a healthy snack during independent reading time is beneficial to students as they will not be distracted by hunger pains.
In the first week of class, send each student home with a letter introducing the idea, offering suggestions on healthy snacks, and letting them know when their child is due to bring in a snack for the class to share.
In my experience, the class enjoys this and the parents (even those less fortunate) contribute. |

This is a great idea for students and teachers. It has worked in the classroom after PE because students can get hungry after that.
Snacks may wake students' minds up as well. |

This is a good idea. Students can't learn if they're hungry. |

I like this idea. snack are a great way to help keep students attention, as they work better with food in their tummies. |

This is a great idea. I would incoporporate a book that introduces a particular veggie or fruit that is healthy. This will help with reading skills, comprehension, and writing regarding the particular healthy snack. Another idea is to show the electronic book and after the book is shown, ask students a few questions for understanding and previous knowledge. You could also have them bring the item then eat it all at the same time. |
