With all the germs and viruses floating about these days, it was a good day to talk about hygiene in Grade One. We discussed the importance of hand washing, coughing and sneezing into elbows and most importantly how to deal with 'boogers'. We read 'I am a Booger, Treat me with Respect', by Julia Cook. This book conveys important information with humour, and makes this topic very relatable. Our students made pamphlets that emphasized the tips they learned about proper nose blowing habits and will hopefully remember everything they learned about boogers:)
Please be sure to sign up for parent teacher conferences taking place online this Thursday and Friday!
