My Project

Please help me provide our classroom with organizational materials and aids to transport those materials!

Teaching at both the middle school and high school in my town, I carry materials to and from each school, using several bags to organize student materials.

Having “wheels” for transporting and organizational tools such as an organizer will help the classroom stay neat. Student work can be organized and filed appropriately. A cork board is necessary for announcements regarding weekly rehearsals and club meetings.

Staying organized is key!!!!
