Organizing Our New Classroom

Help me give my students new bins and laminating sheets to label them and get organized.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Sweeney's classroom raised $192

This project is fully funded

My Project

The special education team is moving classrooms this year and we would like to organize the new space over the summer to prepare for our students to return in the Fall. We are looking for new bins to replace some of the older broken ones and some laminating sheets to label the bins and keep the class organized.

Having an organized space helps teachers and students stay focused.

Decluttering and organizing is shown to decrease anxiety and improve attention so it is especially important with our students that receive special education services.
