Do you feel like shouting “Duck!” every time you hear an ah-choo from one of your students?
Are you tempted to add “surgical masks” and “latex gloves” to your classroom supply list—right next to the note where you plead with each parent to please, pretty please send in another box of tissues and another bottle of hand sanitizer?

I tell kids all the time what happens every time they speak, germs go out of their mouths to all around them. Tiny Creatures would really highlight that statement. There is nothing worse than have a child speak, spit in your face as they speak. Gross. But that is the challenge when you teach.
I always tell my class to use a tissue instead of their sleeve.My change is to have the kids use a tissue instead. I tell them that when you do that you get to throw away the germs………….
WE read books about germs the children have made pictures of what they think germs look like. We talk about using tissue as they have seen that sometimes when you sneeze on your arm or sleeve as they say “it’s gross. We do a lot of handwashing and use a lot of Purell.
Education is the key!
Ayayhoo cant wait to start this next week and keep on.
I am starting a new teaching job December 8; just in time for all the winter germs! I look forward to starting the challenge with my new class after the winter break.
I am starting the 30 day challenge with my class on December 1.
We talk to kids from the very beginning. There is always something going around for the kids to catch
right after Christmas
I will be starting the 30 day challenge with my classroom on Jan. 5th when we are back from break 🙂
