My Students

Hi, I can't wait to meet my students this year. I will have 4 English Language students in my classroom. We will also have 2 students with disabilities. Our demographics are about 50% free and reduced lunch and we are a Title I school which makes getting supplies sometimes a challenge.

My students are excited to be in a brand new classroom.

We are hoping to have the best year ever. I want them to feel at home and be able to have their personal things in reach of them.

My Project

I have always had student desks in my classroom. I have moved to a new classroom which brings us excitement, but also challenges. One challenge we will face is organizing our supplies this year without having desks to contain them.

Help us solve our organization problem and build self starters at the same time.

Chair pockets will allow students to have their folders, notebooks, and novels ready to access in a moments notice. This will save time with not having to retrieve them from another place in the classrooom. This will also help teach independence and allow differentiation in the classroom run smoothly. Please help with this project.
