My students need materials like 7th Generation disinfecting wipes, hand sanitizer, paper towels, and Swiffer refills to keep us healthy through this cold and flu season.
While many people choose to visit our beautiful area for the history, beaches, and amusements, our school is in an urban area. As a Title I school, we are over 44% English Language Learners (ELL), with all of our students receiving free breakfast and lunch and 11% of our children identifying as homeless. Many students are new to our country or our area and about 1/3 move during the school year. Though some of our students face daunting challenges, they are eager to learn, grow, and experiment.
Our students are funny, bright, imaginative, and motivated.
Many are raised in single-parent homes and deal with housing crises due to high rental rates and seasonal shortages. Though we all live within minutes of the beach, many have never been on a boat. Though many experience hardships of different kinds, they are excited to learn and eager to grow in confidence in their ability to become star students!
My goal is to help increase my students' wonder and engagement in the world around them by creating strong, interesting, thoughtful lessons, and projects which make learning exciting! As their first year in public school, I am honored to share the beginning of their journey!
My Project
It has been quite the cold and flu season this year! We are trying our best to keep our room healthy and clean. As kindergarteners, many students haven't been to preschool so all the germs can take quite a toll on the immune system!
Using hand sanitizer, our Swiffer, 7th Generation natural Disinfecting wipes and lots of paper towels will go a long way to helping us stay germ-free!
We clean our tables, floors and benches each day to try to make sure that we aren't spreading germs. Throughout the day we also wash, wash, wash our hands but also use our hand sanitizer in small groups to make sure we don't spread germs as we're working together.
You're help will go a long way to keeping us feeling good!
