Providing my students with chair pockets will allow them to keep themselves organized as well as aid in teaching them to be responsible for their materials. Chair pockets help students by having the tools they need daily readily available on the back of their seats! When materials are readily available, transition times are reduced. This helps to keep my students on task and focused. Lap desks will aid students in flexible learning and give them the opportunities to work around the classroom effectively. By providing my students with flexible seating options, I can better reach all of the diverse learners in my classroom. We use tables and flexible seating so that collaboration can be more easily accessible. These tables do not come with storage space. Please help me give my students a more organized space. My students need chair pockets to organize and store materials that are used throughout the day. By donating to my project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement. Help me give my students a more organized space!
