My Project

My students love to learn about the world as we journey through each continent. We love to create new maps and write about things we learn. We currently keep our work in a 3 prong fastener folder. This option is neither economical, nor is it environmentally friendly as they have to be disposed of and replaced every couple of months due to extreme wear and tear. Kids often lose much of their work due to folders being lost or ruined. Binders would be a more permanent option that would allow students to keep their work safer and more accessible. This is my first year teaching middle school Geography and I am trying my best to my make classroom as student friendly and organized as I can.
