My Project

As a first year teacher, I'm searching for storage space for my new classroom.

For grade 2 students, centers and play are so important.

Allowing students the space they need to grow as learners includes organizing a classroom where these items can be stored.

I plan on including differentiated materials, so having space for paper, toys and games, and other various objects will help these students thrive with the tools they need.

Shopping for a classroom can be difficult and expensive, and I would like to create a space with the requested cart, baskets, and paper organizers where my students are comfortable and happy.

Thank you all for your support!
