My Project

One of my students’ favorite items to purchase from our classroom store is a cup of nugget ice to enjoy while learning. The benefits of the ice include motivation, brain stimulation, and hydration.

Unfortunately, we do not have a sink in our classroom to provide water for our ice maker.

We are in a new classroom this year, and our water source is further away, making it more difficult to keep the ice maker running. This water cooler would make it easier to keep the ice maker running, and we could add this favorite, motivating option back to our classroom store. The benefits are two-fold because students would also have access to fresh, cool water to fill their bottles. Additionally, the cup dispenser will keep cups easily accessible for both ice and water for those who don’t have bottles. Both the water cooler and cup dispenser would be great additions to our classroom!
