My Project

Organization matters and is an invaluable study skill to support young students in their learning journey. Many elementary students struggle with organizing not only their space, but the variety of thoughts running through their little minds. When their space is strongly organized at the beginning of the year they are more likely to move through the school year successfully. The mailboxes are helpful, as students can organize their take home supplies. The three fold folders are a phenomenal resource to organize multiple subjects, such as reading, writing and math, all in one collective space. When these skills are mastered students are more likely to succeed as they are less concerned with clutter and more focused on their learning.
