Organized and Sitting Pretty

Help me give my students a refresh to our seating and classroom organization. New stools and cushions will allow us to sit around the room, while floating shelves and book bins will help display new books!

My Project

We love books! New bins and buckets will help make our books and classroom materials easier to organize. A few new flexible seating options will help us spread out around the room during work time.

Having books on display (covers out) and comfy spots to read in will add to our classroom environment.

6th graders are big, and they are sometimes tough on stuff! These items will help refresh our room for the end of the year, and allow us to leave an inviting space for our incoming 6th graders.
