⛰ I thrive on outdoor life in Montana.⁣
😆 Daily laughter is an essential in my life.⁣
🍦 My favorite food is ice cream.⁣

What tricks do you have up your sleeve for library

What tricks do you have up your sleeve for library class organization?

As busy school librarians, we need all the tricks we can find for staying organized and efficient!

A biggie for me is color-coding...
❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜

Colored folders for my classes:
✅ a different color for each grade level.

Worksheets printed on colored paper: no Astrobrights needed (even though I love them, it's just too expensive!). ✅ The colored copy paper they have on hand at your school or in your printshop will do.

My colors:
💛 = 2nd grade
💚 = 3rd grade
💙 = 4th grade
💜 or 🧡 = 5th grade

Then, when my teaching area was piled up with papers and folders, at least I could sort out which materials were for which class!

With 21 classes on a fixed schedule, and close to 500 students, color coding my teaching materials has saved my sanity!
❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜
