Science Closet Organization

My students need these containers so I can get organized and they can grab what they need for science projects or curiosity. The closets need to be organized also so teachers put things borrowed back properly.

My Students

As a teacher in a low income area. I try to teach my students the hands-on aspects of learning. My students are learning to work with each other sharing their ideas and experiences to be successful. I don't want them to just use computers to learn but to use each other to solve problems or to interact with one another. I want them to be kids that can work together as a team. I encourage the old students to help the younger students. I give my students many examples to hold and explore that I have found so they to can explore the Science world.

My Project

These materials will help the students and teachers get organized. The science closet is getting cluttered with all its materials. We need containers to separate the different units for us to explore as well as label them for when its time to put things away in the correct spot in the closet. My students like to touch and explore the things we are talking about in Science and would like to organize our STEM projects. I am on a traveling cart so the closet is crucial for me to store everything I need for the the students to be successful Science learners.
