You have probably heard that eating breakfast will help you concentrate in school and that it is very unhealthy to not eat breakfast. Well, are the statistics really true?

What We Are Doing:

Our experiment is determining whether the type of breakfast you eat will impact your concentration. We will get 4 students to eat three different types of breakfasts. One will be a full healthy breakfast. Another is a very unhealthy breakfast; And the last is no breakfast at all. When they arrive at school, during 3rd period, we will give them a test. They will have 5 minutes to take the test and it will include a variety of subjects. In the test, they will see a variety of math. The math questions will be addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. However, they will be very complex, meaning it will take a good amount of concentration to answer the problems.

Another part of our test will be a Stroop Test. This is a test that tests your mind with different colors and words.

The final part of the test is a word problem that will require higher thinking and memory length. the person will have the question read to them and they will solve it.

Everyday, the test will be different. They will be very similar but will have different questions. In the end, we want to know if the breakfast they eat will influence how they answerer the problems
