In With The New (furniture)

Help me give my students storage space for their literature binders. These 2 shelves are mobile, so if the class gets rearranged, they are super easy to move. The lamp can help improve moods as well!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Perkins's classroom raised $570

My Project

The storage shelves will make access to literature binders and folders much easier for students, as I won't have to use book bins anymore- the book bins are overfilling and not large enough. The shelves are also perfect, because I can use one to also plan literature groups, where I do store items into bins, which will fit perfect into the cubbies. I have students at varying levels of reading and spelling that I have to plan for in my groups. I am very excited about these shelves as they are mobile and are easy to push around if I rearrange my classroom. The light therapy lamps are perfect to boost everyone's mood in class, especially during dark and cloudy days in the winter, when we don't have much sun light.
