Everyday, I have kids come to my room so hungry. I cannot afford to keep buying snacks. I usually buy the small fruit snacks from Sam's, but I know that is not enough to really help their hunger. I'm aware that some kids fake it, but some of them are really hungry. I don't really want kids eating in my classroom, but what is the best way to help make sure they really are not hungry?

We just bought a Stearns & Foster hybrid mattress. It still emits a smell and I’m reading all these articles about the harmful effects of off gassing with a memory foam mattress.
