My Project

These materials will help teach my students how to stay organized both individually and as a classroom community. With the help of this project and these materials, students will be able to access learning materials anywhere in the classroom-- from seeing anchor charts, to keeping their supplies organized in their desk.

We are in a new school this year so the tape and hanging materials will allow us to have a literacy rich classroom.

The headphones will also allow students to access blended learning apps without distracting others during small group time.
