Turning in Papers
There are many ways teachers collect papers. Personally, because I collected every paper, I needed something a bit more specific. I had a stack of file trays that were labeled for math, reading, writing, science/social studies, other. That way, I wouldn’t have to sort papers near as much when I put them in my grade book. Here are a few other ideas I’ve seen:
Here’s a GENIUS idea I just saw: the teacher had made magnets with different locations where students should turn in papers. She’d stick the magnet on the board next to the item on the to do list. That way, the kids would know where they should put each paper and she wouldn’t have to repeat herself or write the directions day after day. So Smart!
Famous Americans: Writing Page Download
I recently saw this cute worksheet for a unit on Famous Americans. I thought it was very easy and would be great for teaching about main ideas (only including important details from the person’s life) and for reinforcing correct paragraph structure.

Green Table, Blue Table: Labeling Student Desks
When teachers arrange their desks in groups, they need an easy way to label each group. Many teachers number them, or gang things from the ceiling using string, but the following idea was the easiest to set up and most easily recognizable table identification system I’ve ever seen. It’s so easy that it blows everything else out of the water. Take a solid piece of construction paper or cardstock and fold it in half. Then tuck one end in the metal bar between ceiling tiles. Done. Anyone with half a brain who walks into the room will know what color goes with each group of desks and it’ll take you 2 minutes flat to put up all the papers. Just make sure your school doesn’t have any fire codes you’d be violating if you attach anything to the ceiling…

Fun Way to Track Students’ Goals
This was a really cute way to track students’ progression towards a goal. Each student has a marker with their number on the front and the scratchy side of velcro on the back. As students move closer to their goal, they get to move up the chart (by attaching their marker to the velcro strip) until they have reached their goal. I assume it wouldn’t be too hard to change the title on the poster so you could reuse the poster for various goals throughout the year. Good idea!
