My Project

I am in need of help to get my kindergarten/first grade combined room new shelving! I need things in my room to make sure we all have a successful school year! I was just moved to this grade! I have been a second grade teacher for 4 years. Our reading curriculum we use has all elementary students in different classrooms for reading. The corner shelf I’m really wanting to use for my “Walk to Read” groups! This is going to make my students' material easier to access! The cube shelf will be used for my STEAM bins! This will be a morning bin time until all my other students are at school for the day. I won’t have to worry about grabbing certain things for each kid. They will be all labeled and ready to go!

If you’re able to help my classroom I would be very grateful!

Thank you for taking the time to look at my project!
