My Project

Managing small group instruction is not an easy task. It is, however, extremely important to give students individual attention to meet their needs so they can reach their full learning potential. Centers are an important component in my kindergarten classroom for this reason. It provides my students with meaningful academic work while fostering independence. In order for centers to be successful, it is crucial that materials are organized.

Organization is key to implementing centers in the classroom.

It allows students to find materials with ease, thus creating a more effective learning environment. The storage cabinets and bins will help me to organize center materials so that students know exactly what they need and where to find them. It will eliminate lost time looking for supplies and more time working and learning.

Thank you for helping provide an organized learning environment that my students need to learn and grow.
