My Project

My littles are in need of some organization. We have tried several different strategies on keeping our belongings organized. From papers, crayons, and important notes to go home, we have yet to find a successful solution. Many of these things end up on the floor, which can get tricky when figuring out whose is whose.

These amazing chair pockets will make organization so much easier for not only myself, but for my kindergarteners.

We are also in need of some mini mirrors to go along with our new ELA curriculum. It is beneficial for students to see the movement of their mouths when learning a new sound. These too will fit perfectly in their chair sacks and will be readily available.

Everyone will have their own pocket which will be great in keeping all of their supplies and belongings in one easy spot.
