My Project

An alternative to hold their water bottle so it is not on their desk solves many problems. Water bottles are great, kids love and need access to them throughout the day, but they fall, spill, or break and cause disruption in learning. Having a safe place to put them on their chair will help to stop this from happening.

My goal is to get a safe place for each student to store their water bottles so that they stay in the classroom as much as possible and are not leaving to go get drinks from the water fountain.

My students are amazing learners and I just want their attention as much as possible.
