Teacher Week: Why?

The Blog Hoppin' Teacher Week topic for day 3 is ORGANIZATION! I've purchased some awesome pink baskets for the library.  However, my ultimate organizational tool...BINDERS! I have a binder for everything.  I prefer binders with clear sheet covers.  Keeping important papers in binders is a very efficient way of reducing clutter and having exactly what you need at your fingertips.

 

In preparing for our kindergarten and first grade teams, I keep all important documents in separate binders.

I use tons of sheet protectors and condense like categories. I put all the graphic organizers for our reading program together in one sleeve as shown below.

For me, binders are an essential part of staying organized.
