Storage and Paper and More Paper, Oh My!

Help me give my students an organized music room where the instruments are put away neatly and I have enough paper to create activities.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Choi's classroom raised $235

My Project

I am the music teacher and my school does not provide any paper other than copier paper. It needs to come out of my budget, I borrow it from others or I purchase it myself.

I make manipulatives for my students, which can take a lot of paper to make class sets for 5 grade levels.

The cardstock paper, construction paper, and poster board would last me a few years. I would not use the resources of others and I can use my meager budget for musical things. Also, storage for small instruments is vital and expensive.
