Learning how to manage our materials and transition between activities is a difficult task for young children. This becomes exponentially more challenging when you put a full classroom of students who are all learning to manage their resources together. When the students cannot transition and organize independently the result is a loss in learning time and opportunities for fun transitions because we must spend so much time finding where we could have possibly put our book away in the classroom (which somehow was not in our cubby). I am requesting the floor mat to make working on the floor more enticing.
“Education is not the learning of facts but the training of the mind to think.”~Albert Einstein. I am requesting seat sacks so that my students will each have a personal storage organizer at their seat which will teach them how to organize their personal resources and decrease transition time and increase instructional time. I am also requesting organizational tubs and containers which will be used to house centers and sensory bins. By organizing our classroom centers into individual bins with secure lids, my students will learn how to manage their resources, organize and clean up after themselves within the controlled environment of the classroom. By teaching them educational organizational strategies at a young age they will increase their independence within the classroom and carry these skills on with them to future grades and beyond graduation. Kindergarten is the foundation of their educational careers and I plan for that foundation to be rock solid.
