My Project

As a teacher, I always underestimate how many supplies we use on a daily basis. I try to make my lessons as hands-on and engaging as possible, and that requires a lot of manipulatives and materials for my students to use. A few items we use frequently are whiteboards and clipboards. I teach my whole group instruction with my students on the rug but I want them to be actively practicing skills while I am demonstrating on the board. This way they are all within my view and I can help them immediately if they need assistance. I have been storing my whiteboards and clipboards in a huge box and it takes so much time to have students file into line, wait their turn and grab their whiteboard/clipboard and sit down. This procedure always takes longer than I would like which takes away from learning time.

I would love to make things as efficient as possible by having students keep their whiteboards/clipboards at their chair.

This way there is no pushing, shoving or arguing about who gets which one. Since we only have tables in my classroom, I would love students to be able to store things right behind their chair. This way they don't have to leave their seat and everything is easy to locate. I think that having that extra option for storage will really help with efficiency in our classroom so we can spend less time waiting and more time learning. Thank you so much for your interest and support!
