My Project

During the first days of school, you find your students need so much to have a successful experience for the year. Below are the items we need to have a successful year: Construction paper. stapler and staples, markers, command strips, and locked storage cabinet.

Construction Paper helps in making signs and labels for the students notebooks.

This paper will also be used in creating posters and other hand-on learning activities.

Stapler and staples is the best way to stay organized. It also assists in putting up our bulletin boards and displays.

In my room, it is so hot that take does not work on the concrete walls, therefore the need for the adhesive spray. It provides a strong bond for maintaining our word wall and other displays that have to be on the walls for our students quick references.

Permanent markers help with labeling containers and writing on surfaces that require long-lasing visibility. Creating bold, clear signs or label to standout is vital to our students.

Command hooks is perfect for hanging up keys, lanyards, and small tools without damaging the area it is in contact with.

Finally, I need storage cabinets for organization and security of items left in the classroom. This will help in keeping our workspace tidy and free of clutter by organizing materials neatly in the room. My room has no cabinets for storage outside of the closet(without a lock).
