My Project

These bins and books will help keep our classroom organized and tidy as students learn to be independent and responsible caretakers of our classroom supplies. An organized classroom helps students by minimizing distractions allowing young learners to focus on learning.

These supplies will allow my first graders to learn responsibility of their surroundings by fostering a sense of ownership with their environment.

Such ownership build confidence and executive functioning for young learners. A well thought out classroom environment with organized materials maximizes available space creating a functional learning space for young children.
