My Project

During this season, sickness is all around. I like teaching my students healthy habits that will stick with them.

I want my students to demonstrate their skills to others in our school community.

My students will put together a presentation to promote healthy habits in other classrooms in our building. The students will make posters that will show each of the different habits they will present. The laminator and laminator sheets will be used to make our posters durable. The paper to print out each of the habits that will be presented. The air purifier will also be a part of the demonstration and will be used to further promote healthy living in our classroom. The students will select six habits from sneezing into your arm to washing your hands. The posters will contain a picture to demonstrate the habit and a heading. The students will pair up to act out each of the habits including how we would use an air purifier to maintain clean air after cleaning dust out of our room. I am hoping that through my student's demonstration of these habits, other students will want to promote healthy habits as well.
