nurturing environment for learning.\u00a0 In our work together, we create a custom space for the teacher to reinforce concepts and classroom management.<\/p>\n<p>Setting up your classsroom begins with room\/space arrangement. Start with the global view of what do you want to accomplish in which space.\u00a0 Typically there is a teacher work zone with the desk, files, and bookshelves.\u00a0 The student spaces include personal desks and small group spaces.\u00a0 There is\u00a0storage for supplies and the daily lessons.\u00a0 Final room touches include the bulletin board and the wall decor.\u00a0\u00a0By asking yourself questions and centering on the curriculum, \u00a0the classroom takes shape.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Take each zone individually to maximize productivity for the task and to store items.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For the teacher\u00a0work area, have a space for computer, a small quantity of\u00a0school supplies, easy access\u00a0for adminstrative tasks, easy access for\u00a0the day&#8217;s curriculum, and a small space for personal items such as snacks.\u00a0\u00a0For the admin tasks, think of the papers you will get daily\u00a0and need to be filed, returned to the office, or send back to parents.\u00a0Each should have a &#8220;slot&#8221; to drop these in and then take a few minutes to act on the appropriate paper.\u00a0 The cascading file tote from The Container Store\u00a0works well for\u00a0admin papers.\u00a0Be sure to label it with your categories of paper, including administrative, parents, or filing.\u00a0\u00a0 By using the wall space you are keeping paper off your desk too!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Curriculum and lessons need a specific spot.\u00a0 \u00a0You can use vertically stacked letter trays\u00a0 or plastic drawers\u00a0to hold each day&#8217;s lessons.\u00a0 Keep lessons in the space you are using these,\u00a0in\u00a0the front of the classroom, at your small group work station,\u00a0 or in the file cabinet for the following week.\u00a0 Again, lots of labels needed! You can categorize by day of the week, curriculum concept (such as sequencing), or curriculum area (such as math).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Storage in classrooms follows the same concepts as all organized storage. Keep like things together and items you access frequently easy to reach.\u00a0 Use containers to keep floppy, small items each to store.\u00a0 The most difficult aspect of storage is to keep ONLY what you use.\u00a0 Review your cabinets frequently to get items back to where these belong.\u00a0 Curriculum resources can be found on bookshelves behind the teacher&#8217;s desk.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Keeping your classroom organized occurs with good routines.\u00a0 Have your students help you maintain the order in the class by returning items to their proper homes.\u00a0 You are teaching more than curriculums of math, science or\u00a0language.\u00a0 Organizing is a life skill\u00a0 that is very important to share.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt;\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 10pt;\">Here&#8217;s what made a difference for\u00a0this teacher:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 10pt;\">Since I moved to a new classroom this year, I had to do more than just rearrange and re-organize.\u00a0 I had to rebuild.\u00a0 Ellen helped me to begin by thinking globally.\u00a0 What do I want the big picture to look like?\u00a0 What will I need to accomplish today to feel as though I have been productive?\u00a0 She also helped me to narrow down and focus on one task at a time while prioritizing which one needed to come first, second, and so on.\u00a0 Just\u00a0another set of hands makes a great difference, but sometimes having someone to guide you (and sometimes push you to get the work done) is what leaves you with the feeling of complete success.\u00a0\u00a0From arranging student desks to connecting extension wires, from desk drawers to cabinet shelves,\u00a0and from storing unused materials to decorating walls, my feelings of overwhelmed and impossible\u00a0changed to prepared and confident with a little help from a fantastic organizer.\u00a0 Thanks professional-organizer.com!\u00a0 Ellen, you&#8217;re the best!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Ideas for products<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.containerstore.com\/browse\/Product.jhtml?searchId=21884113&amp;itemIndex=1&amp;CATID=74538&amp;PRODID=10018814\">http:\/\/www.containerstore.com\/browse\/Product.jhtml?searchId=21884113&amp;itemIndex=1&amp;CATID=74538&amp;PRODID=10018814<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sterilite.com\/Category.html?Section=Storage&amp;ProductCategory=45\">http:\/\/www.sterilite.com\/Category.html?Section=Storage&amp;ProductCategory=45<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.staples.com\/Staples-Plastic-Side-Loading-Letter-Size-Trays\/product_SS645820?cmArea=FEATURED:SC2:CG22:DP1203:CL142133\">http:\/\/www.staples.com\/Staples-Plastic-Side-Loading-Letter-Size-Trays\/product_SS645820?cmArea=FEATURED:SC2:CG22:DP1203:CL142133<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is an honor and privilege for me to partner with teachers in setting up their classrooms.\u00a0 Teachers and classrooms are\u00a0set up to maximize\u00a0a productive, nurturing environment for learning.\u00a0 In our work together, we create a custom space for the teacher to reinforce concepts and classroom management.
