My Project

I am looking to redo my room after being in it for 8 years. I have been using whatever was in my room from the last teacher and have always made it work. However, I am ready to take on the task to redo so the kids can be independent and get what they need out. We have a new math curriculum this year with lots of hands on items. However, the storage I have now is not where the kids can get to most of the items. This means I have to stop my teaching and get what they need or (let's be honest) we say I will get it for tomorrow. I have worked with the district and PTA to get the shelves I needed. However, now I need to get storage containers and file trays to help organize the items. This is where I am hoping this community can help! Thank you for supporting my room!
