School-Home Communication Binders & Table Space

Help me give my students storage and materials for their School-Home Communication Binders and table space.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Leonte's classroom raised $178

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

The materials in this project will be used to create a neater and more accessible space for my students’ group tables and the area they put their School-Home Communication Binders.

The green binder storage bins will now allow students to have a clear bin to place their School-Home Communication Binders when arriving to school.

Currently, our classroom has one lager bin and smaller book bins, which make the binders accidently fall down at times. The green bins are more stable than our current bins and would be placed in one area. The clear labels will go inside of the green bins with student names. Students will place their binders inside of the section with their name on it. The clear label will also be used to label the side of their binders. The cactus labels will be used to label the front of their binder.

The multi-color dry erase dots will be used to indicate personal space for student tables, and small group tables within the classroom.

The small table top garbage bins will be placed near sharpeners and group tables. This will provide more small garbage bins for students.

Thank you for any donations made to this project, which will greatly help my students for the upcoming school year!
