Funded Sep 7, 2021Thank you for funding our project. We are currently using the new resources daily as part of our functional and life skills curriculum. We use safely (social distancing) wash our face and brush our teeth after breakfast. Students then apply lotion and deodorant as needed. A lot of the students can independently brush their teeth, other needs verbal and some physical prompting.
When the students saw the boxes, they were very inquisitive. I then explained to them how very generous people gave us these resources so we can practice and master personal hygiene. They kept saying "thank you" to me, but I reassured them I was not the one to provide the resources. The students were very helpful in assembling the materials.
After we opened the boxes, we organized the materials and created an assembly line. Each student help fill the personal hygiene kits. We have mostly mastered the steps in brushing our teeth and flossing. We are now working on the proper amount of lotion and deodorant to apply. Thank you for helping teach and reinforce the skill of grooming and personal hygiene.”
With gratitude,
