Oh, the Places Their Stuff Goes!

Help me give my students seat sacks! Their desks are not enclosed, which means their supplies and books fall through the slats every day! This is extremely difficult for my students to keep their materials organized.

My Project

I plan on using these seat sacks to help my students organize their materials and keep their materials from falling on the floor.

Can you imagine having a desk that is not enclosed and has big opened slats inside the desk?

This is the life of my fourth graders! Every day their materials are falling on to the floor, and they are desperately trying to keep all of their materials inside their desk.

With these seat sacks, they can put their materials in the back of their chair and not have to spend precious time, picking up their items off the floor.
