My Project

I am currently requesting some under the table organizers. When students come to our small group tables, they have nowhere to put their belongings. Currently, they are just putting their binders on the floor or taking up the whole table with them.

My students are constantly learning organization.

They have binders that they keep everything in to keep them organized. When we are at our desks, there is no where but the floor to put the binders. I want to give the kids somewhere to put their binders while they are at their desks.
