My Project

My students don’t have a mailbox and it’s been very unorganized and difficult to gather time at the end of the day to pass out papers and other takehome items. My students are unable to read other children’s names so they aren’t able to pass out papers for me.

Having a mailbox will help my students become more organized and will give them a sense of responsibility.

The numbers are what we use to label the students' materials and their numbers are peeling off, and I will also be using them next year. The laminating sheets help create posters around the room that I will be able to reuse.
