Clean, Safe, Germ Free Classroom

Help me give my students supplies to help the classroom stay clean and free of germs.

My Students

I am a third-grade teacher in Pennsylvania. My classroom is made up of thirty, eager third graders. I also have a wide range of reading and math abilities in my classroom. I am the teacher with the ESL-friendly classroom. I would like to accommodate more students who speak different languages.

My reading levels range from pre-kindergarten to fifth grade.

It's important that I read with these children everyday in order to get them on grade level by the end of the year. All my students get free or reduced-price lunch and all these children love coming to school.

My Project

All the materials are difficult to come by at our school. We run out often and very quickly. They are necessary for hand washing, cleaning up spills, disinfecting surfaces, and about a million other things.

We are in desperate need.

This project will make a great difference in the spread of germs in our classroom. We can stay healthy, not go home sick, and stay focused. These are items we desperately need.

They are usually unavailable to us unless they are donated by parents or outside sources. Thanks so much for making this project come alive. Your donation means a cleaner and safer room.

Having these items in our third grade classroom will keep my students healthy so they do not get sick. By having these things to keep our classroom and my students germ-free, they will be able to be at school and not miss days and get behind. Clorox wipes and sponges will be great to keep our tables, chairs and other classroom items clean. Markers will help with keeping everything labeled in storage areas. I want to make sure that all of my students are able to be at school as often as they can, and we can do that by having items to keep us germ-free!
