My Project

The music room is a busy place with many people coming and going. I teach six different grades each day and usually each grade has a different activity that requires different materials. To maximize instruction time, it is crucial that I start each week by organizing everything we need. This project will provide some much needed containers for holding instruments, writing materials, handouts, and whatever else needs a box to live in for the week! I have an awesome walk-in closet with plenty of built-in shelves, but those shelves need more boxes and bins to hold materials and keep them organized.
