Life Skills Cleaning Supplies

Help me give my students a vacuum cleaner, floor cleaner, paper towels, and other cleaning supplies for life skills opportunities to teach them to clean and take care of the space they use daily.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Welton's classroom raised $402

My Project

Please help me to provide a life skills learning opportunity for my students. As you all know, the students are in school almost longer than they are at home which makes for a dirty mess sometimes.

My students love snacks, arts and crafts, time on the bean bags, games, and other activities that can create a mess that needs to be tidied up before they go home.

These supplies would give the students the opportunity to learn how to clean and feel a sense of accomplishment and pride in their shared area.

Having a clean environment helps with mental health and can also be tied in social emotional learning.

I would greatly appreciate any help. Thanks!
