Healthy Hygiene Habits in Special Education

Help me give my students the resources to support good healthy hygiene habits.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Bennett's classroom raised $162

My Project

Learning hygiene habits in school is essential for promoting overall health and well-being. Teaching students about proper personal cleanliness helps prevent the spread of illnesses and instills lifelong habits that benefit their health. By incorporating hygiene education into daily routines, schools create a healthier environment, reduce absenteeism, and foster a sense of responsibility.

This project will help me provide hygiene materials to ensure students can learn these life skills.

These practices also encourage students to take pride in their well-being, leading to improved focus and confidence. In essence, hygiene education equips students with the tools they need to stay healthy and thrive both academically and socially.
