Feeding High Schoolers

Andrew promised his classes a party of sorts on the last day before Christmas Break.

I was making wheat bread for the neighbors, and giving it with a jar of jam that I had made earlier in the year. My elementary students used to love when I would bring them homemade bread, so I thought that might be good for Andrew's classes too. Most of our kids don't have homemade goods very often.

So he went to school with homemade bread and jam, apples, and carmel.

His two classes had very different responses.

Second Block, "Awe, Mr. Coy, why couldn't you bring something normal? Like chips? Or Deli meat?" They didn't eat much.

His Fourth Block Honors kids LOVED it though, and wanted to learn how to make bread, and wondered if there was a cooking class. They ate SEVERAL loaves.

Interesting.

Honors kids...they just "get it."
