My Project

Students come to me daily complaining of throat pain, ear pain, and fever. I need things to be able to check my students. The crutches will be used for students that need them when they are playing in the gym and get hurt. The tongue depressors are to check throats. The otoscope will be used to look in their ears. I even have parents that call and say "Can you look and see if her throat is red" or "Can you give her something for her headache so she makes it through the day."

I need to be able to help all my students with their medical needs.

Ms. Rachel
Grades 6-8
