My students are working on their developmentally ability to care after and take responsibility for their own possessions. The seat-backs for my students would allow them to be able to take responsibility for their own materials, and be proud of their abilities in doing so. By having the seat-back organization, it helps my time-management as well, because 17 easily distracted students would then be able to simply turn around and grab their assignment without having to waste any more time getting up- more time for me to teach! Also included are games for the students to play to help them grow in literacy and math. I am a first year teacher, and want my students to be equipped as though I have compiled the materials for many years. This will ensure the students are in good hands, and have the tools to succeed in their foundational year of elementary.
