Magnificent Magnets for Teachers!

Happy Monday everyone! Hope your weekend was super duper! Today I am here to share some of my MUST HAVE school supplies! 

One thing I absolutely cannot live without are my whiteboard magnets. Without a collection of magnetic items, my classroom would literally fall apart. Because nothing stays up on my cinder block walls, I use my whiteboards as display boards. These magnificent magnets are my favorite school supply!

 If you are doing some back to school shopping soon, you may want to add some mighty magnets to your list!

What is your must-have supply for the classroom?

Classroom Organization: Storing Paper

It drives me nuts when I go to pull out some paper and half of the stack comes out along with it. A while ago, I saw a great tip for storing paper in a filing crate. Of course, I did nothing with that idea until I started organizing my office space at home this weekend.

 I had this small file tub I ordered from The Container Store and discovered that one ream of paper fits inside perfectly (with a little wiggle room)! 

TA DA! 

The perfect Astrobrights rainbow! 

Goodbye crumpled paper! 

I will also set up a bin just for cardstock and another for white copy paper.

Hope you can use this idea for your next organizing project!

 These supplies are always sharp! 

Twistables for coloring fine details and mechanical pencils for handwriting lessons and publishing are my favorite supplies!
