Last week, we had a nurse visit our classroom. We focused on germs. We learned:
- Germs are contagious! You can catch them very easily.
- There are lots of ways you can be germ safe:
- Wash your hands
- You should wash your hands for a LOT longer than we thought (Sing Happy Birthday x2!), scrubbing all over your hands.
- Use hand sanitizer (washing hands works better, though)
- Cough into a tissue or your arm pocket (not your hands)
- Don’t eat food off the floor!
- Stay home from school when you’re really sick so you don’t get your friends sick!
- Wash your hands
We even got to use a special flashlight to see the germs on our hands, and watch them disappear once we washed our hands really well!
