One of the biggest obstacles I faced switching from middle school to elementary was classroom supplies. Where would they all be stored? Would I let kids keep supplies in their desks/cubbies or would we use community supplies? I finally settled on a community supply system that put more responsibility on my students. Here is what I came up with: I got these caddies for 0.98 at Wal-Mart. I added three plastic cubs to make the supplies more functional and organized. First, I sorted all of my students' supplies into the containers. I also used a small circle dot sticker to label each of the supplies, along with the "table" label on the front of the caddy. (I'm sorry you can't see the label in this picture-table 1 has a black sticker). Then, on the back of the caddy, there is a description of every school supply item that should be in the caddy. It is the job of the supply manager at the end of the day to check each caddy and replace/relabel supplies as necessary.
So far, my students are LOVING this system! It keeps them from playing with school supplies inside their desks too!
