Fruit Break is a set time in our classroom for students to ‘refuel’ on vegetables, salad or fruit and ‘rehydrate’ with water. Students who are well hydrated and not hungry perform better in the classroom, show increased concentration, and are less likely to be irritable and disruptive. 

Families are encouraged to send a small piece of fruit or small amount of cut up vegetables- a good portion is the size of a cupped hand. This is a snack, not a meal!
