Teacher Classroom Organization Part 2

§ June 21st, 2011 § Filed under miscellaneous, organization § Tagged , , § 3 Comments

Last week, I shared several dreamy classroom photos.  Part 2 is all about teacher desk/workspace organization.  If you are a teacher, then you definitely know how difficult it is to keep your area clutter free.  Is it even possible…??? On several occasions, the cluttered mess pushed me to the edge! I trashed every single piece of paper that was not of high importance.  I apologize to all those trees…but something had to be done! By the way, I do this at home too. My advice to anyone having clutter issues, sort and trash before you ever try to organize.  Sure makes me feel better.

These organization solutions can be used in the classroom, office, or your workspace at home.

Cookie sheets – how clever! These could be found at garage sales or the Goodwill. 

Muffin tins would also work.

Spray paint them with your favorite color.

Great idea! Clipboards to hold lesson plans..?

Or use at home for homework, projects, etc.

Teacher Classroom Organization Part 1

§ June 16th, 2011 § Filed under Love It!, organization, Teachers § Tagged , , § 2 Comments

Mrs. Joyce, an elementary teacher and friend, asked if I could give her some ideas on organizing her classroom.  I had the privilege of working with her for several years.  What a wonderful lady, and one of a kind teacher! So, because it’s for you Mrs. Joyce, I am happy to do this post. I had to dig a bit for some ideas.  I never had a neat classroom.  I tried, but just not in my blood. My former teacher assistants – Sherry, Tina, and Edna – kept my classroom in order.  They would tell you the same.  It’s been several years since I have seen them – miss you all. 

Searching for ideas has taken quite a while.  I decided to break it into sections.  Part 1 features dream classrooms.  Most teachers would drool over any of these beautiful spaces.
