My Project

Classroom organization and decor are important because they create an environment that supports learning, engagement, and student well-being.

A well-organized classroom minimizes distractions, promotes focus and productivity, encourages creativity and collaboration, and supports diverse learning styles.

It also contributes to positive behavior management and enhances teacher effectiveness. Overall, classroom organization and decor play crucial roles in creating a welcoming and functional space where students can thrive academically and socially.

I plan on using these materials to create a well organized and student friendly environment for my second graders next year! The stools will give them a comfortable place to sit during small group learning, the clip boards will allow for flexible seating options and the drawer organizer will help me keep learning materials organized and easy to access for students!
