My Project

We all know that when a classroom is organized helps to keep a classroom run smoothly and when a classroom runs smoothly it creates an optimal environment for the best learning. Setting up a classroom as a first year teacher can be daunting so, help this first year teacher buy pencil boxes for my students so they can keep their supplies organized and easily accessible.

These pencil boxes will be key to our daily classroom routine as they will house almost all of the students daily supplies such as pencils, crayons, scissors, and glue.
