Let’s get organized!
This summer I wanted to do something to spruce up my room. Getting ready for my 7th year teaching, many of the things I need for each year are already made, but there are many ways I can update my room.

I decided to make new labels for my supplies. I just used Google Images for the pictures
(instead of clip art). I love, love, love how they turned out!
Next I worked on my planning drawers. I use them for planning my days, and my weeks. (We do our main copying a month at a time, so I have a month loosely planned at a time.) Each week (typically Thursday night) I pull out next week’s drawer, and empty it by putting everything where it goes.
I added paper clips to hold a card that says the date (I used to use sticky notes—they were functional but these are so much cuter!) J
My secret was a low-temp hot glue gun. I hot glued each sign on-- that way it sticks really well, but CAN be removed in the future if it's necessary!
My last big project was updating my “Frog Trays”. (My tables are each a different color frog- red frogs, yellow frogs, etc.) I put new labels on the sides and the back. I LOVE them because now the papers don’t slip out the back! J
Have a terrific day!!
Please send me the printables for your math toolbox. I love it!
