Snack List 2016 - 2017
AA’ Parents,
Insha Allah starting the week(Monday 9/19/2015) we will be assigning parents to bring in snack for a week in the classroom.
Parents are assigned a week during the school year to bring in healthy snacks for the students. In a Montessori environment, the students are aware of this routine and the child who brings in the snack for a week prepares and serves the snacks in the classroom which helps them to gain confidence and independence. In a Montessori classroom, snack preparation is an opportunity for them to develop practical life skills and refine their social skills.
Student snack turn list is at the bottom of the page.
We ask that the complete week of snack staples be brought to school on Monday morning of your assigned week. We will store these supplies for the week in our classroom refrigerator.
Due to severe food allergies among children in the classroom, please do not deviate from the list attached.
Thank you for your generosity in helping us offer a variety of nutritious snacks for the children.
No tree nuts: peanuts, almonds, pecans, walnuts, pistachios or granola/nut bars
