The Clorox wipes are used constantly—whether it's before and after group activities, when students share supplies, or just to make sure desks are fresh and ready for learning.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the big boxes of wipes, they were so excited that we would have plenty for everyone to use. Several of them immediately volunteered to help wipe down desks, and they were proud to take ownership of keeping their classroom a healthy space. It gave them a sense of responsibility and showed them how much you, our donors, care about their well-being.\r\n\r\nBecause our classroom is cleaner and more organized, students are able to focus more on their math lessons without distractions. As we move into more challenging problem-solving projects, like small-group math workshops, we can collaborate comfortably and confidently knowing that our space is cared for.
