My Project

The organization carts, bins and folders will allow my students to find resources quickly and efficiently in the classroom. This will create smoother transitions and less time doing so.

These items will allow students to identify and locate the specific items they need for learning and allow for smooth transitions when getting and putting away materials.

My goal for this project is to organize and declutter our classroom so that my students spend less time trying to find the materials they need for a project and more time learning. These items will allow for easy access and be visually appealing in our classroom.
