My Project

I have been teaching 2nd grade this year and we got the at your seat storage pouches for our second graders, which are absolutely AWESOME! I was recently moved to 4th grade this week and now have 38 students in one room. They are having the same struggle as my last class, all of their materials are taking over their desks. These are students who tested into an honors school and work very hard to maintain their good grades and keep materials organized for each subject to maximize their learning. These chair pouches will free up space at their seats, improve organization and allow students to be more successful in class.
