My Project

Organizing is what you do before you do something, so that when you do it, it is not all mixed up. In my center-based Kindergarten classroom, I facilitate rather than dictate my students learning. My learning centers are engaging and driven by students interests.

Help me, help my Kindergarten students get organized.

The storage bins, laminating materials, and other organizational materials will help students work within their centers in an independent and smooth way. Having clear, direct, and accessible items for little ones is super important at this age. Eliminating unnecessary blocks in my students road to success is something that is important to me. Thanks in advance for supporting my Kindergarten buddies.
