Organization to Increase Learning Time

Help me give my students chair pocket organizers to keep our most important learning tools and documents close at hand.

My Project

All teachers know that transitions need to be quick in order to maximize learning time.

These chair pocket organizers will allow students to have quick access to their most important learning resources across the curriculum.

In our classroom, Key Words, Multiplication Facts, and other important anchor charts need to be referred to often and taken out quickly. These pocket organizers will be part of the important routines we develop to help us function so that learning time is maximized every single day throughout the school year.

This organization will allow students to maximize their learning time every day in all subjects and leave time for the fun, collaborative activities that make school fun.
