My Students

I have a group of talented students whom are eager to learn, show off their work to their classmates and other adults in the building. They love listening to books, writing various genre, participating in class projects science and social study projects.

Due to the Covid, I am always cautious about the classroom being super clean and having enough cleaning supplies for students.

I am requesting clorox wipes hand sanitizer and lysol spray for my class so I can use the cleaning products after activities, science experiments or social study projects. Please help my students feel safe and sanitize and keep them germs free so they can focus on reading, writing, math, science and social study.

My Project

Students' desks need to be cleaned every day so they can have breakfast in the morning in the classroom. They need to use hand sanitizer throughout the day in order to be germ-free. They are constantly touching material and surfaces in the classroom and outside the classroom. They are given or asked to constantly use sanitizing products to keep themselves and others safe.

Keep my students safe and clean.

The classroom needs to be sprayed in the morning and afternoon to clean the air. Since it is really cold outside and opening windows become challenging most of the time.

Disinfecting wipes and spray are essential for learning. Students are engaged and focused when they participate using the SMARTboard and materials. Each time a student touches a surface it needs to be clean before other students touch it.
