Classroom Makeover

Help me give my students a better classroom that they deserve. I recently took over this classroom, and it needed to be completely reorganized and given lots of love. Help me create a better space for them!

My Students

I have a really good group of students. If I could give one word to describe them, I would say they are super helpful.

Whenever I ask for volunteers to help me with something, it's hard to choose from the many eager hands that go up.

It's always nice to know that I can count on them to help me when I need it.

My Project

Students need pencils for solving problems in math. They also need more pencils because they are learning how to write personal narratives in writing class. They need markers for practicing math problems on small white boards. They need notebooks to take notes during class.

Most of the items I need are for organization.

I have lots of bins for storage that are just sitting on the floor and need a home on a shelf somewhere. Students need a place for jackets and book bags.

The decorations are to brighten up the room.
