My Project

Storage cabinet allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times they choose a location in the cabinet that works for them. Currently my students are choosing to leave work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting under desks, or laying projects on a friend's desk. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in keeping their items safe. They almost always make good choices about where they place projects, are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are comfortable their items are safe.

My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given a choice of where to keep their projects safe.

The product that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional storage options to make more effective learning choices. The cabinet has adjustable shelves. This will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to feel their projects are safe. The cabinet is lightweight and can be easily used in many areas of the classroom.

I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
