Help Mrs. R.

I have a Kindergarten classroom that is in great need of storage furniture. I have 20 kindergarten students doing a wide range of activities such as writing on journals, recording data on plants growth, and reading and drawing about a favorite book. Thus it is difficult to organize the amazing output my students generate without the right furniture. That is why I would like to request to our generous donors a reading and writing storage center for our classroom. This unit has 20 compartments for each student so they can safeguard their writing, recording, and drawing work. It also has four shelves that will store their ongoing reading projects in individual boxes. To make this unit even more perfect, it is at the right height for all the five year old children to easily access their work. This storage center is ideal for developing an independent and well organized student who has access to his work when he needs it, and puts it back when he is finished. At the end of the day he will reach for his completed projects and take them home. An intricate web of 20 students conduct a high energy movement around this storage center and teacher interference is minimal. Being organized is a real life skill that all students must learn early. My students will indeed become well organized and independent learners as they retrieve or put away their writing and reading projects from this storage center. My Kindergarten students and I would have a profound gratitude if you, Dear Donor, would honor our request. Truly, this wonderful classic birch storage center could make a great contribution to our learning.
