Students from the Kosciusko-Attala Career and Tech Center (K-A CTC) recently partnered to teach kindergarteners at Kosciusko Lower Elementary proper handwashing techniques through the Mississippi Handwashing Program.
High schoolers from the Ed Prep II and Health Science II classes led interactive lessons explaining the five steps of effective handwashing and how good hygiene prevents the spread of germs.
To make the material engaging for young learners, the students read Jeremy Germ and the Germinators, taught the “Handwashing Song,” and played educational games to reinforce healthy habits.
The collaborative project allowed the CTC students to apply their practical classroom training in a real-world setting while making a positive impact on younger students in their school community.
