Lately it seems like everyone is catching something. Several teachers at my school have been sick. And it seems that it is not only where I live. Many of my blogging buddies have recently posted a how sick they have been. It is know wonder, it seems like once school starts back up everyone starts getting the crud. The nurse at my school just sent out a friendly reminder about washing hands. She said that she had seen SEVERAL cases of strep throat coming through the front office. Of course, I am just sitting around waiting for my turn to catch it. I usually catch whatever is going around in my class. And if I don’t catch it in my classroom then I get it from my own two kiddos.
After the nurse informed us that strep is running rampant at my school, she sent us a video from You Tube to share with our class about the importance of washing hands. I showed it to my class and they seemed to like it. It is only about 4 minutes and it gets the point across about washing hands. I thought I would share it with you in case you want to have a mini lesson on the importance of clean hands.
Now I am off to wash my hands {just talking about it makes me feel the need to rewash them}! Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek!
Argh!! I caught strep and whooping cough from my kids earlier this year. SOOOO not fun. I hope you don't get it!!
