The ULTIMATE Lesson Plan Book

What is one thing that REALLY makes you feel organized? For me, that's my lesson plan binder. It goes EVERYWHERE with me....seriously. My husband thinks it's funny that I take it to places where I don't even need it at. I just keep SO many important things in it, that I would be devastated if anything happened.

So, I wanted to share with you my recent teacher resource pack MAKEOVER! I decided to REDO my old teacher resources pack into this NEW and IMPROVED one!

You get SO much to help you stay organized! There are 164 pages to help you personalize and make your teacher binder the way you like it! 

You can choose from a variety of cover pages, binder covers, or even make your own!

It even comes with lesson planning pages in both black and white AND color!

I would say that my favorite part would either be the lesson planning OR the calendars! I LOVE calendars, especially when we have so much going on as teachers! 

You can find this wonderful lesson plan binder and MORE by clicking here or on the picture below!

Just interested in the calendar? Well, you're in luck! I also have a brand new 2015-2016 Calendar pack! The awesome thing about this as well is that it will be updated every year so you don't have to repurchase every year!

I hope you enjoy!

               

Calendars and Labels: A Start to My Classroom Organization Tour!

Organization could probably be my middle name. I like to organize things that are organized. I thought it would be fun to share some of my classroom organization and teaching organization! This post is mainly about calendars and labels, but stay tuned because the rest will be coming soon! :)

Calendars...who doesn't love calendars? I use these in my personal lesson plan binder but you can also use them for student calendars as well!

Vertical Calendar

Horizontal Calendar

Although this doesn't necessarily pertain to organization, I also have reading log calendars that I send home monthly with my students. This helps students stay organized and track their at home reading!

Of course, the only way I'm able to stay sane with all of the million supplies us teachers have is LABELS! I LOVE labels...it goes with the territory of being super organized, but when I say I love labels....I mean I'm OBSESSED. I wish I could take pictures in my classroom now to show how many more labels I've put up, but I promise I will get to that as soon as school starts back up!

 

In addition to supply labels, I have number and letter labels. These chevron numbers and letters are great for classroom labeling, math tub labeling, student tables, and MORE!

and now of course, there are many things that you probably just want to label yourselves, so I made a blank EDITABLE labels pack!

and of course I always have to throw in a fun FREEBIE! Here are some FREE black and white editable labels!

Thanks for checking out this post! Stay posted for the other awesome organization posts! 

              

Teacher To-Do List Freebie!

Do you have to-do lists for your to-do lists? Well, I do! I feel like I am constantly making to-do lists and then I can't find those little pieces of paper that I wrote on!

This has by far been one of the best organizational tools for me! I made a "to-do" list divider of my lesson plan binder. That way, when I think of something that needs to be done, I write it there, and it's ALWAYS with me! Yes, I take my lesson plan binder with me EVERYWHERE....call me crazy :)

I wanted to help out my former teachers, so I decided to make it a freebie for ya'll!

Happy Organization! Have a great week!!!

Classroom Organization

One of the things that I LOVE is to organize. I seriously organize things that are already organized...sometimes it overwhelms me! But hey, I aways know where to find things!


Here is where I store my materials for the entire week. This is such a great tool because then there are never papers piled up and I can copy stuff ahead of time!

My classroom library is also organized so that the students always know where to put a book when they are done. Each basket has a label with the "genre" and it is in a certain color. The color on the label matches a small round circle on the bottom of the book. The children then know where to place the book after they are done reading it! I also try and put a dot on the label just in case the color is a little different, or if I put a design on the sticker!
