You work in a 2-year-old classroom and one of the children has been out of school for four days because of illness. Your co-worker has become best friends with this child’s parent and knows that if she misses any more work, the parent will be let go of her job. By mid-morning the child is laying on the couch in the quiet area so you take the child’s temperature, and it is 100.9.
