Managing Materials

My students need a place and a space to organize their materials.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Johnson's classroom raised $502

This project is fully funded

My Students

Low-income. Homeless. High poverty. These are words that people often use to describe our scholars.

However, the words people should concentrate on are: high achievers, determined learners, and creative thinkers.

We are scholars who have a hunger to learn, a passion for knowledge, and a need to succeed. We are looking to expand our critical-thinking skills, explore our creativity, and develop our talents for twenty-first century learning. We are looking to develop our gifts and talents and need your help to do so.

My Project

My scholars are currently in a room with little storage space. This makes keeping materials organized in an effective manner difficult, causing frustration for scholars and adding additional time to our transitions.

Help us organize our materials with new bins and shelves that will allow easy access to the learning tools we need.

We will use these storage containers and shelves to help us manage our materials and time more wisely. By creating systems that scholars can navigate, they will be set up for success and will learn how to manage their own belongings. Help us to manage our materials.
