My Project

For this project, I am asking for a bookshelf to help me organize our classroom library. At the beginning of this year my classroom was moved into a smaller space, because of this, I lacked functional classroom furniture. I have a beautiful classroom library, donated from previous projects. Unfortunately, right now, I do not have furniture that allows me to present the library in its entirety. Also, due to this smaller space, I have had to reorganize all of my things. I am asking for organization bins to help me organize my supplies in an efficient way. My goal for this project is to create a space that is neat and organized to help me and my students work to the best of our abilities.
