My students need the ClosetMaid Cubeicals Organizers, Smead Hanging File Folders and Storex Classroom Caddies so that they are learning in an environment that is well organized, structured and teaches responsibility.
I will begin my journey as a first year teacher, teaching ELA and Social Studies to roughly sixty fourth grade students in a suburban community. My students come from all different backgrounds and socioeconomic levels and have grown up in a supportive community that values education. However, my students will flow into our building from three different kindergarten to third grade schools and will need a safe environment that helps bind them together.
I know all of my students are capable of learning!
I expect some to be anxious and some to be excited for this new adventure in fourth grade. Nevertheless, we have a great team and building that will ease the nerves and welcome our new students with open arms and open hearts.
My Project
The main goal of my project is to create a safe and structured learning environment through the use of organizational supplies and the classroom basics. Additionally, I plan to encourage student responsibility and coordination by having them keep track of the supplies in caddies and their missing or unfinished work that will be placed in the hanging file folders.
Do you have trouble concentrating in a messy room?
Just like many adults, students too, have trouble concentrating and getting into a creative flow when things appear in disarray. Having the Cubeicles Organizers will provide the structure students need by having supplies and books neatly organized and easily accessible. In addition to organizing the classroom, the students will have the ability to organize their thinking through the utilization of the white board easel, chart paper and flair pens. They will be able to create vivid illustrations and graphic organizers to place around the room and reference as needed.
I urge you to consider this project as it would help create a wonderful space for the students to feel welcomed and take responsibility for their learning.
