Description:
As students study hygiene and homelessness, students will learn the importance of personal hygiene, a daily living skill. In addition to learning this daily living skill, the students will learn how to purchase and collect hygiene items to donate to a local homeless shelter.
Given the many options and the flexibility built into this service-learning project, it is hoped there will be few problems identifying appropriate service-learning opportunities within this framework for students receiving special education services, similar to their nondisabled peers.
This unit is aligned with the Maryland State Curriculum.
