My Project

My students have grown and developed a classroom community that is warm, inviting, and shows acceptance of all. I’m so proud and honored to be their teacher this school year. Even though we are coming up to our last few months of school, is so important to keep our classroom as germ-free as possible. During this time of year, many of my students suffer from allergies, colds, coughs, and sneezes. I try to do as much as possible to help keep our classroom clean and sanitized so they can show up and perform at their best level.

The materials in this project will help keep my scholars and our learning space clean, healthy, and happy.

The Kleenex will help protect scholars from coughs and sneezes due to allergies and colds. Hand sanitizer can be very helpful in keeping little hands clean. The Clorox wipes will help us keep our tables, chairs, manipulatives, and learning space clean. Drinking plenty of water can help my scholars stay healthy and hydrated.

We would be so grateful if we could add these materials to our classroom learning space.
