Today I tackled my filing cabinet. I call it "tackled" because it was a DISASTER. There was still stuff in there from the previous teacher and I just grabbed my files out of boxes and shoved them in the drawers the night before school started last year. EVERYTHING was mixed together and every time I wanted something I would have to search through all the files until I found it.As I was pulling stuff out of the drawers I organized them into piles. I had piles for seasonal stuff, Language Arts, Math, etc.
I also found this coloring book that made me itch immediately. It was an entire coloring book about lice. I cannot even imagine handing this out and having my students color little lice guys. The next page shows lice glueing (with a glue bottle) their eggs to shafts of hair. UMMM No thank you!
Well after
Now I will be able to find my stuff without having to search!
For today's organizational freebie I am adding my sampler of Classroom Labels!
Next Getting Ready for Back to School post will be about me building shelves and creating a back to school bulletin board in the hallway.
If you missed my Getting Ready for Back to School - Day 1 post you can read it here.
Cheers,
Oh no.... that Lice colouring book is too much! LOL Thanks for sharing your progress. Maybe it'll motivate me. :-)

The lice book is gross! When cleaning out my preschool classroom, I found a video about drugs with topics such as "Does weed hurt my brain?" and "What if I want to try cigarettes?" I tossed that one. I can't imagine showing it to preschoolers!
ReplyDeleteWow those are "mature" videos for preschool! I guess someone's motto was teach them while they are young!
