Storage for Materials

Help me give my students easy access to materials for their independent projects.

Ms. Manka Danbury High School - Main Campus

Danbury, CT Grades 9-12

Celebrating 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 storage items I have selected will allow my students access to STEAM materials. As our school and district move to a project-based learning environment, it will be even more crucial to have materials at students' fingertips.

The storage containers will keep all materials in a central location that is organized and more functional.

In addition to project material, I also have many hands-on materials that students can manipulate and learn with kinesthetically. Students will have the ability to go to the cabinets and access their project and learning materials in a neat and organized manner.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
