My Project

Creating a clean and collaborative environment for projects that facilitate social interaction is crucial, especially considering the challenges posed by COVID-19. Here's a list of cleaning supplies that can help to maintain a safe and collaborative space:

Disinfectant Wipes or Spray:

Use these to regularly wipe down commonly touched surfaces such as tables, chairs, and doorknobs.

Paper Towels:

Use this to wipes hands after washing to promote regular hand hygiene.

Shark Vacuum:

Use this to vacuum floors for projects that will require a large building space. We currently have construction on campus and the floor are quite dusty.

The rest of the supplies supplies such as the bendable straws, colored pencil sharpeners, and dominoes will be used for engineering and creative projects.

Regularly cleaning and disinfecting surfaces, along with promoting good hygiene practices, will help create a workspace that fosters collaboration while prioritizing the health and safety of the students. It's also essential to encourage collaboration by creating a well-equipped and flexible workspace that can accommodate a variety of creative endeavors.
