Help 3rd Grade Keep the Germs Away!

Help me give my students materials that will allow us to have a safe and sanitary classroom. Every item will assure that scholars will be in a space with less germs and exposure to getting sick.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hilliard's classroom raised $209

My Project

Our 3rd grader scholars are an exceptional group! They are very independent and vocal about keeping their spaces and classrooms safe and clean for not just themselves but their peers as well.

The materials we have requested are necessities needed to assure that we are keeping our classrooms germ free and allowing one another to refrain from catching common colds and other viruses that are floating around.

Even the tennis balls requested will allow us to refrain from scratching up the classroom floors with our chairs and desk. Some of our desk and chairs need some TLC and the tennis balls will allow us to balance out those wiggly legs.
