My Project

Being organized is a huge part of a teacher's daily life. Without an effective organizational system in place, important teaching time can be lost. Losing instructional time each day certainly adds up, and time is something teachers don't have enough of already! This project will help organize our classroom read alouds, files, and group books.

Help give our classroom organizational tools to make our day flow as seamlessly as possible.

Students will learn organizational strategies that will hopefully carry over into their daily lives. Students will develop skills these organizational skills and no time will be lost in our day due to out of place items.
