Class Stuff

I'm now on Day 3 of the new school year.  I found this awesome idea on Pinterest (thanks to http://2ndgradesandcastle.blogspot.com/) and decided to try it with my students this year.

I purchased a box of heavy-duty manila folders and taped it to the fronts (and sides) of the students' desks.  The kids love their pockets.  I think this is a great idea since it provides a place for them to stick their incomplete work and not get lost in their desks.  It's also easier for me because if students don't know what to do next, I can just say, check your pocket. 

There are so many other ideas on Pinterest that I want to try.  I'll have to see what I can do next.
