My Project

My school serves the best and most loving students of Spartanburg County with varying disabilities. Like most children, it is easy for them to get overstimulated with clutter. It is my hope that this project will greatly help my class.

Color coded.

My idea of being color-coded with these two sets of papers would allow for students to have approximately 105 sheets that will last throughout the school year. I use these sheets for parent notes, data collection, and many other reasons. Plus the added colored rolling cart will allow for the binders to easy be moved to wherever instruction is happening as well as have all binders in one central location. This would free me up to teach some much needed skills. Thank you for considering. Be blessed!
