My Project

Hi,

My students are verbal thinkers who love to talk.

They are active students who use their senses (talk, listen, touch) to learn evertything. We will use the Snapple juice drinks and water to keep the students hydrated and motivated throughout the day. Liquid intake is important to keep our bodies going. Many of my students are student athletes who drink lots of liquids so ths project is great for them. We have talked about how important is to stay hydrayted and for us and our families to drink lots of water to keep our bodies healthy.
