Primarily Organized

I print one of these sheets, slip it in a sheet protector and hang it by the classroom door. The kids put a clothespin on their name when they leave to go to the restroom, retrieve the lunch crate etc. I can quickly see who is out of the room and also grab it on my way out for a fire drill. This makes it very easy to see how many kids I should have and who I may be missing. It is also quick and easy to update when students move in or out of my class.

Pick up packages of Avery 77501 Labels (Clear Label Index Maker Clear Pocket Dividers) from your local office supply store along with a 3 ring notebook. Simply print the PDF I've created and you'll have durable stickers to put on your new dividers. There are enough labels for each of the 26 CCSS catergories listed for 2nd grade math. That's 4 labels for Operations and Alegbraic Thinking (2.OA.1 - 2.OA.4), 10 labels for Number and Operations in Base 10 (2.NBT.1 - 2.NBT.9), 10 labels for Measure

Here's a quick little note I attach to the Scholastic Book Orders. It includes the due date, payment info, our online ordering info, and a slot to put the most up to date DRA level to assist parents in ordering "just right" books.

Our youngest students sometimes need reminders about their dismissal plan. Simply print this out and keep it on a clipboard or near the classroom door for quick reference. If your school has an after school program, there is also room to note which kids are attending on various days.

If your students are required to sign in and out of class to use the restroom, just print this off and you're all set!
