As a teacher, one of the biggest challenges is keeping track of assignments and ensuring that they are

completed on time. With multiple classes and students, it can be overwhelming to manage homework
assignments. However, with the right organization strategies, homework can become more
manageable for both teachers and students.

Utilize a Homework Calendar

A homework calendar is a great way to keep track of assignments and due dates for each class. This
can be in the form of a physical calendar or an online one. Teachers can mark down the date the
assignment was given, the due date, and any other important information. This not only helps
teachers stay organized, but it also allows students to plan their workload accordingly.

Create a Homework Folder or Binder

Another useful organization idea is to have a designated folder or binder for homework. This can
include all the necessary materials for completing assignments such as worksheets, notes, and
handouts. By having all the materials in one place, students are less likely to lose or forget important
documents. Teachers can also use this folder or binder to collect completed assignments, making it
easier to grade and provide feedback.

Use a Homework Tracking System

A homework tracking system can be a useful tool for both teachers and students. This can be in the
form of a checklist or a chart where students can mark off completed assignments. This not only
helps students keep track of their progress, but it also allows teachers to quickly see who has
completed their homework and who may need extra support.

Encourage Time Management

Time management is a crucial skill for students to develop, and homework is a great opportunity to
practice it. Teachers can encourage students to set aside a specific time each day for completing
homework. This not only helps students stay on top of their assignments, but it also allows them to
have a better work-life balance.

Consider Online Homework Platforms

In today's digital age, there are many online platforms that can help with homework organization.
These platforms allow teachers to assign and collect homework online, making it easier to keep track
of assignments and provide feedback. They also often have built-in features for time management
and tracking student progress.

Overall, homework organization is essential for both teachers and students. By implementing these
ideas, teachers can make the homework process more manageable and effective. However, if you

to complete each student’s report cards. Not fun. But it gets the job done of helping to remind a
student to raise their hand instead of shout out. Reply Delete Replies Reply Unknown April 26,

least it’s only ONE big, bulky thing instead of many. Another failure was my attempt to us painter’s
tape to color code each subject. If I only have a single copy of a book, it goes in the bin solo.
Although these CDs are loaded to my iTunes account, attaching the CD allows me and other
teachers to always have access to them. I use my teacher cart to hold my small group supplies. Then,
I go into blogger and tweak the photo quality. My friends know they must ask first to open this
container (because it’s unlabeled). I try to keep one theme in each bin, but sometimes small themes
(like teeth or Valentines Day) double-up in the containers. It is also part of classroom structuring
which every teacher is encouraged to do for the physical improvement and ensuring the effectiveness
of the materials in place. When I was in the classroom, I learned that homework works better when
it’s organized. However, as a teacher, it helps me see what my learners can do on their own. And the
shelves slide out so you can easily grab whatever papers are in there. You can read more about our

have students fill their book bins with a few books from the leveled bins and a few from the themed
bins. Reply Delete Replies Reply An Inviting Home January 29, 2013 at 11:30 AM This is great. I
love this idea, I just can’t picture how I would laminate them. Everything has its own space, so
everything stays organized. I student taught in 1st grade and never. Read More. That way we would
have a place to put all those loose items that went unclaimed, and students who realized they were
missing something had a place to look. ? I guess it’s basically a more organized “lost and found” for
the classroom. ?? What do you do with lost supplies.

the kids, which includes incorporating quiet time. You can read more about our Math Centers here

bought this one, but I’m sure all the usual places carry them. This keeps the number lines organized

maximize learning in our classroom and how I maximize my time as a teacher. I keep these organized
by story (meaning I mix the colors) and rubber band them so they are easy to reference. If you fill
this in, you will be marked as a spammer. I would love to get rid of a teacher desk and a rolling
cabinet. If the kids always know where to turn in their work, there’ll be fewer questions and more
organization. For other FREE classroom resources and freebies, sign-up here for teaching ideas to

makes trading out books for listening to reading simple. I am really particular about using natural
lights for taking pictures (rather than overhead lights) which makes a difference. Cut to size. If not to
thick, try cutting all sides together with paper cutter. My friends know they must ask first to open
this container (because it’s unlabeled). So if I wanted to work on report cards at home, I had to bring
home 3-4 huge binders full of stuff. But it gets the job done of helping to remind a student to raise
their hand instead of shout out. Attached to the inside of the door, is a list of guided reading levels
and what books I have. Each kid has their own folder, and mommy and daddy share one as well.
Now, my room is definitely not 1st-grade ready, but the key organization pieces are up and running
from last year or have been added this summer. Over the past week I have been feeling some anxiety
over the thought of going back to school. You can find all the information on each item in the room
by clicking over to the post. I am determined to be as organized in my classroom this year.

great. How many times do you have students ask “where do I put my homework?” or “where do I
turn in my homework?” When you have a consistent procedure with it, things run smoothly and you
get more done. It is also part of classroom structuring which every teacher is encouraged to do for
the physical improvement and ensuring the effectiveness of the materials in place. Can you please
share what you do during Guided Reading. Your information will never be shared or sold to a 3rd

Last year, our team was blessed to receive Scholastic News from Donors Choose. For the themed
books in the Sterelite containers, are these themed picture books that you would read aloud to the
class or themed books at a first grade level. They’re portable. For example, I can take the bin with
me to the assembly and start looking at their work. I have viewed tons of organization sites and
yours is definitely the most helpful (especially your library). For other FREE classroom resources and

labeler, which is also housed in the homework drawer, and labeled each bin. Plus, my friends BEG
for extra reading time on Monday mornings. (Read more about our weekly bookshelf in this blog

build excitement. Here’s how we store our bilingual Montessori homeschool materials that are out of
rotation. I use the Large Sterelite Clip Top Tubs for centers and absolutely love them. The other
problem is that I had to flip through 3-4 binders in order to complete each student’s report cards. Not
fun. It’s true friends. I love procedures and order and know my classroom runs smoothly because of
these things. I try to keep one theme in each bin, but sometimes small themes (like teeth or
Valentines Day) double-up in the containers.
