Food, Glorious Food!

I’ve been hearing refrains from Oliver Twist in the last week since I rolled out the usage of Edmodo with 3rd-5th grade students.  “Please, sir, may I have some more?”  Seriously.  I received four messages in the last two days from students asking me to give them more assignments, and several have asked me in person. ((Here I was worried that I was asking too much of them!))

This tells me two things:

1. Students love learning if it’s engaging and meaningful.
2. Students are starving.

Do you have starving students?  What are you going to do about it?
