My Project

These materials would highly benefit my students with their organization. I want to provide them with a binder to keep their school work in and pencils so they can take notes.

I am helping my students get organized with school work to help prepare them for the future when they go to college.

By preparing them for college, they will feel ready to learn and do not have to worry about learning how to organize their time/materials.

These folders will be helpful for my students because they usually stay with me for two periods (Math and Science) and it would be easy for them to take out the folder with all our materials in it as they come in to class. This way, no instructional time is lost digging for classwork.
