Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Unfortunately, this disorganized, creative teacher needs your help! Effective storage solutions also facilitate easy access to learning materials, enabling teachers to efficiently distribute resources and promote independent learning. Moreover, storage promotes safety by keeping walkways clear and minimizing tripping hazards. Ultimately, a well-organized classroom with adequate storage enhances productivity, fosters focus, and creates a welcoming atmosphere for both students and educators.

I am excited to be moving into a new classroom next year, but I have one problem: lack of storage.

A cabinet and stackable bins keep materials organized and out of the way. The cabinet also allows me to safely store the student materials. Please consider helping me create a safe, efficient classroom to educate the young minds of America! My goal for this project is to make sure I have student materials efficiently organized to allow for lessons to run smoothly.

I teach at a Title I school and have the most amazing students. They need a classroom that runs smoothly to ensure I keep their focus.
