My Project

My Students

My students are enthusiastic fourth graders who thrive in an organized, positive learning environment.

They love coming to class each day, ready to learn, participate, and grow. Keeping our classroom running smoothly helps them focus more on what really matters—learning, collaborating, and achieving their goals.

What We Need

To maintain a clean, structured, and motivating classroom, we need a few simple tools that make a big impact. The carpet tape will help safely secure our learning rug in place during activities. The class calendar will help us stay organized, track classroom events, and build responsibility. Magnetic storage baskets will give us a place to keep supplies accessible and tidy. Finally, the large jars will serve as our incentive jars, encouraging teamwork, positive behavior, and class pride.

Impact

An organized classroom helps students take ownership of their learning. When materials are easy to find and the environment feels structured, students can focus more deeply and engage more fully. The incentive jars will celebrate positive choices and hard work, turning good habits into a fun, shared classroom goal. These resources will help my students feel proud of their space, motivated to learn, and eager to contribute to our classroom community.
