Being an educator can be tough. It can be more tough when you’re materials aren’t well organized. Dr. Erica Warren is here to help with seven handy tips to be everything you use in its place for when you need it. It’ll help make everything more manageable, not to mention your space will look a lot more appealing.

Use well labeled, color coded filing cabinets, storage carts, colorful boxes and even old pill bottles to organize materials.

To briefly run down a few points, first use color colored containers with large, readable labels to help you quickly find what you’re looking for. Also, once a year, it’s a good idea to go through ALL your stuff and pick out the pieces that aren’t needed anything. This will help reduce clutters. And remember, plenty of shelving is a must!
Each bin offers enough space that can house things like math manipulatives, games, dry erase boards/pockets, index cards, paper, balloons and more. It didn’t take me long to fill all 40 drawers, and even my parents and students have expressed appreciation for setting a great example.
