My Project
I'm requesting a class set of 8-pocket folders—one for each student—to create a personalized organization system that stays in their desks. These all-in-one folders allow students to sort their work by subject: reading, writing, math, science, social studies, and more. With everything in one place, students won’t lose papers or waste time searching—they’ll know exactly where their work belongs.
To support classroom organization even further, I’m also requesting two 9-drawer Sterilite carts.
These rolling carts will help manage classroom copies, extra supplies, and turn-in work. I’ll be able to sort materials by day or subject, and students will have a clear place to turn in completed assignments. These carts will be a key part of our daily routines and smooth transitions.
This project will build strong organizational habits and give students the structure they need to feel successful. With everything in its place, learning time increases, stress decreases, and students feel confident and prepared. Your support will bring order and calm to our busy first grade classroom!
