Spacially Challenged

My Students

My students are in need of these crates, drawers, and hanging kits to help us organize our materials. In order to learn, students need a safe and organized learning environment.

My students are enthusiastic tenth, eleventh, and twelfth graders, who, despite their age, enjoy hands on activities and showing off their work.

They come from a variety of backgrounds. We have military students, special education students, honors students, AVID students, and students from very diverse cultures. One thing they all have in common is that they love to see their work displayed.

My Project

The crates and drawers will allow us to have easy access to the supplies we need to work on projects within the classroom. Having the hanging kits will all us to effectively use the wall space that we do have to display the various products that the students produce. These items will also help us to create an organized and clutter free classroom.

This project is important because it will provide us materials that will allow us to organize our classroom by giving a place to our materials that are in need of a place to call home.

My students will be thankful for these materials because they will instantly see their impact in the classroom, the classroom will be more organized and less cluttered.
