Let’s Get Organized!

Help me give my students a better classroom with proper supplies and storage. These supplies will help my students work on their organizational skills by using their chair organizers among one of the supplies.

My Project

The specific items such as the storage crates and chair pockets I have asked for will help my students learn how to stay organized in the classroom and hopefully carry over into their every day lives. A lot of my students do not have stable home lives and having this tool taught in the classroom can be a great help!

My goals for this project are to get my students prepared for moving onto higher grades and to gain the skills they can continue to carry with them along with their regular curriculum.

My students are special because like I mentioned quite a few of my students do not have very stable home lives and being at school gives them that stability that most kids thrive and I can see it in their faces when they know they are cared for.
