My Project

I love that my students are curious and love to learn. My students are 4- and 5-year-olds who may not think about the safety of a clean learning environment. They love to learn and experience different learning materials; however, they may not think about the safety of having a clean and sanitary learning environment.

The most important benefit of a clean classroom is the fact that it maximizes the learning experience of the students.

According to recent studies, dirty environments negatively affect the learning of students and in turn, the overall performance in the classroom. Help provide a clean and sanitary environment that will positively affect the learning of my students.
