Organization to Maximize Learning!

Help me give my students materials that will keep them organized to maximize learning!

My Students

My students are incredible! My students are in kindergarten, first, second, third, and fourth grade. They are curious, inquisitive, hardworking, and dedicated. All of my students have Individualized Educational Plans because they have been diagnosed with disabilities.

All of my students receive free breakfast and lunch at school.

They come from high poverty areas, and they all love coming to school. My students are brilliant individuals who learn differently than their peers. These students will be successful, and it's my job to create learning opportunities that ensure this.

My Project

We are in need of some math classroom supplies that we use daily and/or weekly! We've run out of some essential materials that help with student learning, student organization, and school-to-home communication.

My students are truly incredible and bright individuals who deserve to have all of the materials needed in order to be successful with their learning.

We use the laminating pouches to laminate hands on math materials we use often and need to keep over time. We use the plastic envelopes to keep games, centers, paper math tools, projects, and various other activities organized and together. We will use the plastic pouches to keep flashcards and other materials in. We use the folders to keep our classwork and homework organized.
