Organized Learning

Help me give my students the tools to organize their supplies and learning.

My Project

Dry erase markers, marker boards, and organizing pouches are all things that we need to keep our classroom organized and our learning going strong. Unfortunately all of these things wear out and are used daily. My students thrive on structure and routine. Being able to have their supplies organized and ready for them helps their learning run efficiently and smoothly. Marker boards and dry erase markers allow us to practice, make mistakes, and allows everyone the equity to show their learning. All these materials help our day run better and our learning go deeper.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
