This year, in third grade, the students will be given a chance to eat a snack in the middle of the morning. We have found in the past that giving them this break to recharge their brains has made the rest of the morning very productive and engaging.
Guidelines for our snacking recharge time:
Guidelines for our snacking recharge time:
- Snacks must be provided by the child. Teachers will not distribute snacks to children.
- If a child should forget their snack they may not share with a friend. These two guidelines are in place for allergy reasons.
- Snack recharge time will occur during a whole group instruction time so it will be a working time. Students will be expected to participate in class while snacking. Please keep this in mind when deciding what snack to pack.
- Healthy snacks are encouraged.
