My Project

This spacious shelf has several bins to help store and organize materials for hands on math and reading centers!

This shelf would make it so easy to organize and differentiate hands-on learning stations for Kindergarten reading and math!

My Kindergarten kiddos would benefit greatly from an organized centers shelf! All the materials they need for hands on learning would be stored in this shelf. My Kindergartners would have so many options for learning that are easy to find with the organization and space in this shelf. I use so many materials for learning centers in Kindergarten, including magnetic letters, dry erase markers, dice, laminated cards, dry erase boards, math manipulatives, play doh, and so much more! It would be so helpful to have a large storage shelf where everything is organized and accessible for my students
