My Project

The beginning of a child's school year can have its own challenges, so I want to make sure they know they are entering a classroom where they feel loved and safe. Having these essential items will play a vital role in creating a healthy and conducive learning atmosphere at the beginning of the school year.

Having tissues and wipes readily available allows for quick clean-ups and personal hygiene, ensuring a more focused learning environment.

As the year progresses, it encourages my students to use these supplies as a way to foster a sense of responsibility for their health and the cleanliness of their shared spaces.
