Teacher Week: Organization

Happy Wednesday!

Today is Day 3 of Blog Hoppin' Teacher Week!

This will mostly be a "throwback" post because I've written about organization many times (27!) before. I absolutely ♥ sharing and learning organizational tips. I think because my position (special education) feels so "out of my control" at times, organization is the one thing I can get a handle on. I also don't feel comfortable turning my back for too long with my firsties ;)

I use the huge Rubbermaid shelving units from Home Depot in my intervention/office space:

I use the clear bins that come in three sizes from Ikea. I spent A LOT of time researching bins a few years ago and these were the most economical set I found. The lids are interchangeable for the medium and large bins. The quality is also the best I found for the low price.

For my own planning, I mostly rely on my Outlook appointments from my iphone (our school uses them, so all I do is accept the appointments). For the written/brainstorming list, I'm trying to remember to use my new Erin Condren planner. So far, so good!

For data tracking, I have my students doing the heavy lifting :)

Oh my goodness...best decision I ever made!

As far as organizing daily student support materials and traveling between my intervention space and two general education classrooms...I'm really looking for some new ideas! My caseload this year is 100% awesome AND totally turning my teaching organization on it's head. I'm really going to learn a lot from this group...more to come!

There's a terrific "BOOST" sale going on at TPT!

My entire store is on sale!

Have a fantastic day!
