From Chaos to Calm, One Bin at a Time
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Melissa Rodriguez's classroom raised $245
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Our Pre-k learners are just months away from their Kindergarten year, where play time moves from games in Centers, to games at tables. We are trying to prepare them with cooperative literacy and math games, but currently those items are jam packed into our closet with no organization. The result is that chaos ensues as we search for specific games in the mess.
Bins will help us eliminate student wait-time by getting our literacy and math games organized. Neat closets will help us get straight into the fun of learning.
This classroom project was brought to life by Optimum
and one other donor.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
