My Project

It becomes difficult to run a classroom when you need more pencils, storage, laminating sheets, highlighters and dry-erase markers. This project is all about ensuring that we have those basics.

A well-organized classroom offers a clear and productive message to students.

A well-organized classroom needs the necessary supplies to function. The supplies from this project will be put to use right away. The materials in this project will make a huge difference in student learning as it will maximize learning time. Instead of clutter and chaos, students will have the supplies needed to stay organized and on-task.

Mr. Steger Lowell P Goodrich Elementary School Grades PreK-2
