My Project

From colds to allergies special needs students require lots of cleaning to keep the room safe for their lower immune system. Our class goes through LOTS of Clorox wipes and we spray Lysol every morning before students arrive and in the afternoon once they leave. My students struggle with hands-on motor skills so modeling clay would be a HUGE help with teaching their muscles how to maneuver and build.

My students are eager to learn and have already come so far this year I can not wait to see how much farther they go!

Sadly constant sickness causes issue for their learning and I want to do as much as I can for their health.
