Help Us Stay Healthy and Clean

My Project

Tissues and hand sanitizer are essential in an elementary technology classroom to help keep students healthy and learning. With shared devices like iPads, keyboards, and headphones, germs can spread quickly. Young students often forget to cover sneezes or wash their hands, increasing the chance of illness. Having tissues readily available encourages proper hygiene, while hand sanitizer helps reduce germs between handwashing opportunities.

Keeping students healthy means fewer absences and more learning time.

A clean environment also protects technology equipment from damage caused by sticky or dirty hands. Tissues and sanitizer help create a safe, clean, and productive learning space.

Additionally, our elementary classroom needs dry erasers to keep whiteboards clean for daily lessons, group activities, and student practice. They help students correct mistakes, stay engaged, and keep materials reusable. We also need a visual timer to help students manage time, stay focused, ease transitions, and build independence during activities.
