My Project

Have you ever been in a rush to get to school? You didn’t have time to eat breakfast? Good news! You’re not alone. Many students have this issue, and they end up coming to school with a hungry tummy. Students should be able to eat a snack, like Frito’s Corn Chips, during class. Coming to school hungry has many problems.

You cannot concentrate during class because your stomach is rumbling, and you keep counting down the minutes until the next class.

Closer and closer to lunch, you don’t pay attention because you are hungry and can’t wait to eat. This is an issue because you are paying more attention to how hungry you are, and not about the lesson you are learning during class.

Cleaning with Clorox wipes helps to physically removes dirt, germs, and other debris from a surface. Sanitizing kills germs on a previously cleaned surface and lowers their number to a safe level, Disinfecting kills a greater amount and wider range of germs.

The paper towels will help with cleaning up spills around the classroom. They will also be used for art projects.
