Save the Date Calendar Picks

Help me give my students a sneak peek at upcoming events and activities for learning while back in the building with a wall calendar, markers, and more.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Stewart's classroom raised $183

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are determined to earn their HS Diplomas and equivalent. They are dedicated and driven to succeed. Many of my students are extremely creative, while others are more expressive through different forms of art (e.g., dance, music, rap, singing, etc.).

My Project

By "saving the date for picks" with these items, my students will learn to stay organized and be better prepared for success in the upcoming school year. Dry erase calendar boards, dry erase markers, dry erase board erasers, and stickers; are the materials that will help my students in this project with building on their organizational skills.

Students will have the ability to plan for upcoming events, assignments, tasks, and deadlines!!

Students will learn daily, weekly, and monthly calendar organization skills by color-coding events and activities and creating fun/easy-to-remember identifiers to support their continued organizational development and skill-building.

This project will assist my students with staying organized, whether we are in-person or virtual.
