My Project

Providing my students with folders in the Art room is a huge game changer for success. Before integrating this organizational tool into my classroom, student work was taking up unnecessary extra space on our work shelves. Also, a lot of student work would go missing due to students passionately beginning their art project before writing their name on the back of their paper.

Providing my students with their own folder creates the perfect portfolio to keep their amazing artwork safe.

This is a project I originally created on Donors Choose as one of my very first and highly successful projects for my Art classroom. Through creating this project again, I hope to continue this organizational technique and routine to effectively provide a better educational experience for my students.
