My Project

This project will help students meet their basic needs throughout the school day! It's so nice to see students' excitement when they have bandaid that matches their skin color! The little things truly go a long way! Clothing, such as pants and socks are always needed for spills and accidents. My medication binder is desperately in need of replacement. The organ stuffies will help students understand what their organs look like and what their function is. A little vaseline is so nice to be able to give students so they can treat their chapped lips in class so there is no disruption to learning. I will use the first aid stickers to put on the teacher's first aid bags for their classroom. Thank you so much for your consideration!
