My answers:

2)There is germs on the ground and if its not clean, the germs will be infected on us and we will get sick.

3)We can keep the classroom clean by sweeping the classroom daily and picking up litters on the floor in the classrooms.

4)Sometimes, I sweep the floor and clean the whiteboard but I do not empty the basket before.

5)I learnt that classroom cleanliness is very important as if there is no classroom cleanliness, we will fall ill.
