My Project

Classroom Organization focuses on the physical environment. Effective teachers organize a safe classroom environment by placing furniture, learning centers, and materials in order to optimize student learning and reduce distractions.

When you organize your classroom effectively, your students know what their responsibilities are and what you expect of them.

Organizing also gives students a structured daily routine for your class (e.g., starting class with a warm-up period and then transition to lecturing) and helps them manage their learning better.

These bins and storage I am asking for will do just that in my classroom. The organizer in my project will allow them to have a spot to keep them in. The cubes will allow me to put supplies in for my students to access easily and quickly. I am also requesting pencils and glue to use daily within our classroom.
