My Project

My third grade classroom is currently full of 20 enthusiastic learners. We work hard all day and strive for the best. Often during our days of learning, our desks become a cluttered mess. As we work on our organization skills, book bins would be so helpful. We plan to keep our most valuable items in these boxes away from our desks.

Our Chromebooks, writing, and books deserve a safe home!

We can keep our school materials lasting longer with a new system in place. This system will work for future classes and continue teaching organizational skills. We all can work on that!
