 **Picture yourself in a classroom, starving, but you have two more periods before lunch. Wouldn’t you be so hungry? I know I would! In my essay, I’ll tell you why I think we should have snacks in class. The reasons I think this are that it’s healthy, it keeps us active, and we can take a break to have a delicious snack. But make sure you don’t get hungry while reading this!**

 **Snacks are good for you, especially healthy snacks. For one, some of us aren’t that healthy so we could have healthy snacks like carrots, celery, fruit, and maybe a little salad. Second, I know a lot of us don’t eat breakfast in the morning so we could bring a little snack to get us up and running like a bag of cereal or some fruit. Lastly, we could have a bag of chips or something cause, who doesn’t love chips? Now I’m going to tell you how it keeps us active.**

 **My next topic is how the food keeps us active. Some foods I know, can get us up and really if we’re tired or just don’t have enough energy. Also, if we feel really lazy like I do sometimes, we can have something to keep us awake. The last reason is if we’re tired and yawning like I see my friends do every morning, we can have something to get us awake and in the mood.**

 **Now the last thing I’m going to tell you is that it gives us a chance to take a break. If we are so bored and just don’t feel like writing for a few minutes, we could have a snack. The last reason of all is if we don’t have anything else to do in class, we can work on something else like a study hall or if we don’t have anything to do, we can enjoy a healthy snack instead of just sitting there.**

 **In conclusion, we should be able to enjoy snacks that are healthy, keep us active, and even get a break! I know how hungry I get so I hope you consider having snacks for your class! Now, I’m going to enjoy a good healthy snack so I don’t fall asleep in class later!**
