My Project

As I transition into a new classroom this coming year, I'm excited to create a flexible and engaging learning environment for my students. One significant change is that this classroom will not have traditional desks with built-in storage. Without this space, keeping essential materials like math workbooks and writing tools organized becomes a real challenge. To support my students' success, I'm requesting storage containers for math workbooks, pencil holders for their desks, and clearly labeled turn-in bins to keep our learning routines running smoothly.

With designated containers and turn-in bins, students will always know where their materials go, helping to reduce lost work and distractions.

These organizational tools will create a more structured space where students can take ownership of their materials and focus on their learning. I'm also requesting a set of K'NEX building kits to offer as an incentive for early finishers. This hands-on, creative play option will give students a chance to explore STEM concepts while rewarding them for completing their assignments on time.

Thank you for considering a contribution to our classroom. Your support will help build a well-organized, student-centered environment that encourages both responsibility and creativity!
