My Project

Students love to read when you give them the gift of reading. This project will help my bookshelves be organized. I have two bookshelves that are broken and missing a pin. When the baskets aren't sitting just right the baskets can fall off. This project will allow students to quickly find the basket they want to read from and pick books. I will also use the baskets for the organization of the teacher's work area. Teachers need binders to keep data. The baskets will allow me to organize my binders efficiently.
