How to Make a Organizer

We created an organizer that is useful for placing different types of materials. The problem we were trying to solve was a teacher being unorganized, and our solution to help her was making an organizer with different compartments so she could be more organized.

Cut a big piece of cardboard and make lines on it in order for it to be bendable, then roll it and add glue so it stays together

Putting It Together
