If I Am Healthy, I Can Learn!

My students need to remain in the classroom everyday. If they are ill they can not be in the class. They need tissues, disinfectant spray, and wipes.

My Students

How can we learn if we are sick? If my students are sick, they can not learn because they are not here!

My students are brilliant and bright.

They always have a smile and are willing to learn. My classroom is always bright and full of excitement. We are always trying to help our students succeed, but since the community the students come from is poor the parents can not help with the supplies needed to keep the students healthy. Simple things like sprays and wipes can keep the students in class and learning. This is where they want to be!

My Project

Having these supplies in my classroom will allow the students to learn and continue to grow. These students are the future and if they are at home sick they can not gain the knowledge they need to succeed! Without my students in my classroom I can not do my job. I need them here and they need to be here!

I may have the next president of the US in my classroom.

Do you really want him or her sick on the day we learn about using "a" or "an" in a sentence? I may have the doctor that cures cancer, but if they are not in school they day we learning addition, how will they be able to compute the correct formula!
