Group supply containers

I found this idea on pinterest the original post is located at http://flamingofabulous.blogspot.com/.  I decided to try and be super organized this year due to the fact that I currently have 28 students in my classroom!  I have never had that many before and I am a little freaked about it.

I went to Wal-Mart and found the containers.  I added a label to the container and a matching one to the lid. Then I added all the supplies that the students will keep in there and took a picture of them.  I attached a copy of that picture to the side of the container so that it is clear what the container should look like at the end of the day or when the supplies are no longer being used.

Here is the finished project.   I think they turned out rather nice.

  1. I love the idea of placing a picture on the container so students know how to organize it. I used storage containers last year and getting them to place things back in neatly was a challenge. Luckily I had "neat freaks" who would organize them during pack up.

  2. Thank you for the comment. I was so excited to see that I received a comment on my blog. I have been trying to figure out how to get more traffic. So far, not much luck. Any ideas?
