My Project

My pre-k students are very energetic and curious. If anything is placed on the table in front of them, they are immediately distracted and reach for it.

No more arguing over who has the pencil with the eraser and playing with scissors at random!

The chair pockets will provide each student with their own space to keep their supplies near them, yet out of sight. The color scheme matches the calming environment I’m trying to create for them. Instead of digging around in caddies on the tables, we will be able to regain our focus on lessons again

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
