My Project

Organization is an important skill that we often don't teach to students. Organization saves time and causes less stress. Teaching students to stay organized will have multiple benefits throughout their lives. After the pandemic, this has become an even more crucial skill for students to learn.

We want our students to be well-rounded and successful at many things.

The requested binder clips, binder rings, file box organizers, and file folders will be used to teach students how to take care of their supplies and how to organize them. Each classroom table will have a file folder box and each student will have their own file folder to keep track of their classroom learning materials.
