My Project

I am moving to first grade and into a smaller classroom space! My classroom will be filled with lots of little first graders and we will need as safe a space as possible!

A backpack cart will create that safe space!

A place to get all our backpacks and jackets out of the way and not creating a tripping hazard throughout the classroom! My class is projected to have 30 students! That's a lot of little bodies moving around in a classroom space and I need it to be as safe as possible for all of them!
