Provide opportunities to practice
and build fluency:
Divide the classroom into small
groups of 5-8 students. Demonstrate the proper way to wash hands.
Demonstrate how to wipe up water messes. Explain the importance of
using the toilet correctly and what to do if they miss. Example:
tell an adult. Discuss benefits of being clean. Example: Germ
reduction and clean for the next person.
Acknowledge expected behavior:
Example: If the janitor informs classroom teachers of good/clean
bathroom behavior on a daily (weekly) basis. Class as a whole could
earn reward (compliment chain).
