My Project

This exciting project is aimed at creating a more organized classroom environment that fosters my students' autonomy with Book and Binder Holders, Vertical File Organizer, Cart, Paper Storage Cases and Stackable Bins.

Research shows that an organized classroom significantly enhances student learning.

It reduces distractions, increases focus, promotes positive behaviors, and leads to better academic outcomes. When students feel comfortable and confident in a predictable environment, where materials are easily accessible, they can spend more time on learning activities and less time managing disruptions.

Your assistance in helping me provide my students with the organized and calm learning environment they deserve would be greatly appreciated.

Mrs. Starnes will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by April 6.
