My Project

My third graders are AMAZING!! They are motivated and eager to learn new things. The materials in this project will be used to create a healthy classroom environment where students can learn and have fun!

A healthy environment leads to positive learning experiences!!

Every morning we start with breakfast in our classrooms. Although this is a wonderful option for students, it often leads to milk spills and messy hands. These materials will keep my students healthy, focused, and prepared for the day ahead. Thank you for helping me teach my students the importance of healthy habits with supplies that range from Kleenex and hand wipes to napkins and Clorox wipes. We appreciate you considering our classroom to support!!
