Lazy Days of Summer...

A place for everything and everything in it's place!  

Today, I worked in my classroom for four hours trying to organize and PURGE things I no longer use. For the most part, I am usually very well organized. I think it must be the OCD gene passed down to me from my mother! The quote at the top is my mother's mantra! I must admit that like everyone else, I get busy and don't always have time to file everything. So for the past two years, I've been piling everything in those nifty and ever available copy paper boxes. Therefore, they are known as my "boxes of shame".  When I arrived at school today, there were three such boxes. It took the better part of two solid hours to sort, file, and purge the materials in those boxes. It was, however, a success! No more piles to file or boxes of shame! :)  In the effort to be "green", I donated the one-sided papers to my next door neighbor who teaches Math and LOVES scratch paper.

Once the paper clutter was dealt with, I moved on to tidying the room. I decided that my CCGPS standards posters were looking a tad bit rough. I needed to redo them. After lunch with my oldest son, I came home and did just that! Here's the result.
