Colorful Organization in Learning

My Project

My students come to school to learn. Each day can be a struggle for them to attend, but when they are in school, they are safe, and they are learning. Our classroom is small and does not provide storage for individual or classroom learning materials.

My students deserve an organized area to store their learning materials that are quick to access with our changing days; the chair pockets will provide an ample storage area that they can access easily and quickly..

My goal for this project is to provide an aesthetic and organized classroom in which all children can learn in .
