Everything Needs A Home

Help me give my students the power to be independent, using these organizational tools.

My Project

My students love to be helpful. Our school is a Title One school and many of our students have their needs met through the school. With these organizational materials, my goal is to teach my students what it means to be responsible with our equipment and give them the opportunities to be independent and responsible in helping with setting up and taking down our P.E. lessons.

Every moment spent getting organized using these materials, will allow for many more moments of time given to my students, teaching them independence and responsibility.

I will be able to focus more on my students, as well as help them see that having a place for everything in our space, helps maintain safety and longer lasting 'tools'. These materials will help them know specific equipment goes in specific places, allowing for them to use them.
