A Line of Communication

My students need a 30-opening literature rack.

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Please help us get organized! Our class needs simple tools to become organized so that we may start learning. This is an inner city school with very little resources. We have 90% free and reduced lunches. We just need a little help within our classroom to organize ourselves, so that we may become successful.

Line of Communication! Yes, we need some help with communicating. This organizational box will help our students turn in homework and get more organized with their paperwork. It will also help me, as the teacher, to see who has turned homework in and who hasn't. This would be a great tool for our class.

This organizational box will allow for better communication between the students and myself. Homework has been an issue and I believe this box will help each of my students stay accountable for their own papers.

Please help us get organized so that we may be able to move forward with our education. I believe my students haven't had the basic skills of learning organization. Let's get them on the right track to success.
