It’s time to get reorganized! We encourage you to take this on one spot at a time. Trying to tackle the entire room at once can become overwhelming. Break it down and get excited over the accomplishments for each day. You can even stick papers in a bin and take them home to organize if needed. Now, lets get started on conquering those piles we made in our last post!
First we need to think about where these piles will go. You may find it helpful to invest in a few bins, shelves or organizers. This way you can make sure everything has a place to stay for the entire year. It will make things easy to find when you need them too! You can even try adding small plastic baskets to drawers for better organization.
Need help remembering where things go? Want to make sure everyone else knows where to find things and where to put them away? We suggest that you label everything! You can go the cutesy route and get some decorative labels or even just take some tape and write on it with a sharpie. Either way it is guaranteed to help keep things neat and organized all year long!
You can take this a step further by color coding materials. For example, all red folders for math will go in the red bin and all blue folders for reading will go in the blue bin. It may take a bit of work now, but it will save you a lot of time in the future!
