Optimum Organization: What's Next? Signs

 I'm linking up with Kristin at Ladybug Teacher Files and Fun in Room B to share another organizational tip!  

Ever notice that sometimes it is the simplest thing that solves a problem?  Even when my directions were explicit and clear, I still had students asking me, "What am I supposed to do next?" 

Here is how I answer that question:

I made some simple signs to attach to my white board that clearly spell out the order of work that must be done, making priorities clear.  If there are options within a step, I just list them as bulleted items.  Since I use magnetic tape (love that stuff!) to attach the signs, I can just move them up or down to make more room.  Student know right where to look to keep organized.  Simple but effective!
