My Project

As a teacher, we use various organizational tools to maintain a clean, safe and welcoming environment for all of our students. By creating such a setting for our students, especially those with special needs, it will encourage health, wellness and success.

Help my students stay focused in a clean and organized setting.

Working with students with special needs, tools to help aid calm and focused bodies will support them to being successful, especially if it is "low profile". We want to give them motivation to do well in every form possible.

Teachers are constantly bringing work and supplies back and forth. With tools such as a rolling cart to help bring in needed supplies on a regular basis, it would help lighten the load to put our much needed focus on the students where it belongs.
