Organization, Convenience, & Decor for High School English

Help me give my students classroom organization supplies that will make it easy to find what they need, a neon light to encourage reading, and remote controlled plugs so we can easily turn off all our lamps!

My Project

I absolutely love teaching high school English--I love building a comfortable, creative space for my students and connecting with students based on what they're reading.

The project seeks to address some of the issues I'm having in my classroom right now--from organizing, to encouraging my reluctant readers, and finding a new, easier way to turn off all the lamps around our classroom.

I need new paper organizers that I will use as a place for students to turn in paper assignments. I need new plug-ins that will allow us to turn off all our lamps with the push of a button. I would love to have a neon "Let's read!" sign to encourage my students to pick up a book! Finally, I would love to have some small storage containers to organize our small pieces, like the "would you rather...?" cards I use to prompt students' journal writing.

Please help me improve the functionality of our classroom with these items that will make it more visually appealing and organized!
