Organization is Key!

Help me give my students colorful table caddies and storage bins to stay organized!

My Project

Organization is key for any teacher, it helps with structure, transitions and effectiveness. It eliminates time lost looking for supplies! Learning has many challenges, most of which is finding a spot for all the extra resources and supplies needed for teaching.

Showing them organization while teaching , by having materials used and returned to their proper location , the storage bins and colored caddies, will allow them to see how efficient and time saving organization can be.

This will help them to model organization with their own learning materials at school. My goal is that students can learn organization by example and our lessons will have very little time lost in transition due to their skill acquired.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
