Organising Teaching Resources

by Kristel
(Kununurra, WA, Australia)

I have been teaching a few years now and this works for me. At times I find I am so busy I don't put my resources away properly and thus my desk looks like a bomb has hit it.

To fix this problem I bought a pack of magazine holders (nice bright ones), lots of display books with extra pouches and a label maker ($50 from Coles).

Each theme I make cover page and put a sticky label on the spine describing the folder. I then just slide in all my programs, copies of useful resources, photos of displays, ideas, activities etc as I go.

The magazine boxes are at the top of my desk and sit upright so don't lose the file amongst other books and resource books.

Saves a lot of time filing and sorting through paper. And all ready too for another year and you can share files with colleagues if you work in teams.

 love the idea
by: Tania

I do something similar, having gone so far as to have 1 labelled display folder per letter of the alphabet , one for concept books, one for number activities, one for communication notes to parents etc
It is sooooo much easier to control the never ending flow of ideas and paperwork.

 Thanks for this idea....

I have the same problem. The boxes sound like a good idea to just slip the appropriate sheets in after use.
