Water Bottle Storage

Help me give my students a place to put their water bottles that is out of the way of their work and safe from getting kicked around in the floor.

My Students

My students are from a rural farming community where effort and willingness to work hard are abundant, but resources are not. I love to see my students learn and be excited about it! We do not have the best technology or the newest materials, but we have so much fun learning and exploring together. I believe my students' greatest strength is their ability to make what they've been given "enough", but I want to provide them with more. Thanks for your help!

My Project

While water bottle holders aren't directly related to students' learning, it does help us to be organized to get onto the business of learning. Since the pandemic, students must rely on having a bottle for water as we do not use the water fountains. As you can imagine, having 15 plus water bottles knock around all day can present its own challenges. My hope is, that with a designated place to keep their bottle of water, we can avoid having to take time out of our precious schedule to mop up spills. Thank you for looking!
