Optimum Organization and a Freebie! Grab 'n' Go Grading Binder

 You've seen them and I've had them... the trays for collecting student work, neatly color coded and labeled, laid out on a counter or on a shelf.  I loved them!  (And the dollar store loved me!)  I've even used dishpans so more papers would fit in one container.  

Then I changed schools.

I no longer had countertops on which to place my trays and shelves were in short supply.  Even the class itself was smaller so an additional tabletop would not work well either.  I had to adapt fast... ever been there?

I created my Grab 'n' Go Grading Binder and am sharing it as a FREEBIE with you in this week's Optimum Organization!  Thank you Kristen and   Fun in 4B once again for hosting!

Here is how it works:  

(By the way, forgive the photo editing above... my color printer is out of ink!)

Made it Monday: Cute Teacher Clipboards!

I'm linking up with Tara at 4th Grade Frolics for Made it Monday!

I love clipboards and have them hanging in handy locations all over my room.  I keep everything from checklists to observation forms on them.  Plain old chipboard clipboards just don't get it done for me so...

I made them pretty with scrapbook paper!

 Here is the scrapbook paper pack that I used.  So cute if you love the school theme!  I bought it at Joann Fabrics.
