My Project

Everyone knows a chaotic environment ensues chaos. If the teacher is organized then most often the students are. Classroom environments are essential to the students' learning. They need to be fun, loving, calm, but most of all organized.

I teach 6 classes which equals 180 kids per day, color code for my classes and storage space it is essential!

It is critical to be able to have hands-on materials, like organization colored bins for each class.

The storage boxes and cabinet will help with that independence. An organizational system will be created for the student so they are easily able to access the classroom materials without hassle and stress. The boxes are color coded for each class which is necessary to keep our class organized. As my sixth graders are learning to present their work, I would like for them to have a podium where they can stand in front of the class and speak which will help them build confidence.
