We're Running Out of Space in Our Classroom!

Help me give my students new stackable bookshelves so we can have more space movable in our classroom!

My Project

Currently, in my classroom, books and hands-on materials are in various areas of the room, stacked precariously on bookshelves, and although this is amazing to have such a variety of books, we are running out of space to walk around our room. This makes it hard to find exactly what you're looking for.

With these beautiful new bookshelves, our classroom library will be more organized and my students will have more space to move around the room!

I have chosen these bookshelves for a few reasons: having a more organized book storage system in my class will encourage reading, the style of the bookshelves gives the homey feel I strive to create in my classroom, and finally, it will also give space for each student to have more walking room around the classroom.

Thank you for supporting my classroom and my kiddos!
