Three Cheers for VIP Recess

Help me give my students storage for their VIP recess equipment and games.

Ms. Shimerman Farragut Elementary School
Culver City, CA Grades PreK-2

My Project

Implementing these storage solutions will create an organized, efficient, and accessible system for VIP recess items. This investment in storage will enhance the usability of shared spaces and ensure the longevity of materials. VIP recess items will be easy to find no matter who runs it.

These items will help to improve the management of VIP recess resources effectively.

Helping to keep the items all in place in the very limited space that we have been given to store the items. It will help protect items from damage or wear through proper storage solutions. The mini Keurig coffee maker will be used as a special treat for the kids who win VIP recess. During the winter months instead of the popsicle the kids earned during the fall, the kids will earn hot cocoa with the fixings. The kids will be able to go to the storage items and pull out what they have earned for that weeks VIP recess activities.
