Book Bin Labels

Hello! I thought I would share my Chevron Book Bin Labels.
I created these to go with my Chevron Classroom and my Chevron Teacher Binder Labels(See the post below). I bought colorful ribbon--any size will do, I liked the thinner ribbon for my baskets.
I print out my labels --I will laminate the labels for durability once school starts again (that's where the laminating machine is:))
I made labels in different colors for a more colorful classroom library. I punch holes in the top and add the ribbon.
Then tie to any basket...found this and other colors at the dollar spot at Target! Just love it!
I also created Chevron Classroom Labels for all my supplies. This will hopefully keep my students and me very organized throughout the school year!!
I will also laminate these and place inside or tape to the outside of clear shoebox tubs---from Target too!!
Up close:) I made labels for tables as well. Tables 1-6.
I put a large caddy in the middle of each table for students to put their crayons, scissors, colored pencils, and pencils. This eliminates clutter in their desks, as well as, encourages sharing:) I will laminate and tie a bow around each label and viola! I also made larger labels to hang from the ceiling. Check out my store at Teachers Pay Teachers or click the Tpt button and it will take you straight there:) Have a wonderful day!

Hello! I hope you are having a great Tuesday:) I have created a new product on Teachers Pay Teachers. Just click the button on the side to check it out. It is Chevron Labels for Your Teacher Binder. I created these labels because I always feel so disorganized! Ugh! Now I have a binder to put all my teacher business into and go:) Here is my binder, I like the bright colors so that I can easily find it...hahaha The cover page is a freebie you can get by going to my Tpt Store and downloading. These are two of 16 binder labels. I used Just So Scrappy digital clipart and it turned out really nice! I bought clear protectants to insert each label. tada!...protected! Then I went a little crazy...I bought Smash book supplies and really go organized:) There are clips, tape, a band to store pens and pencils. I have just started to use these in my binder. I would love to hear how you like to organize your teacher binder too! Please share a comment:) Have a great day!!

Hello everyone!! I hope your summer is going well! My name is Stacy and I am new to the blog world. I am a 1st Grade teacher and I love to create and share new things. I live in Florida and love our wild life even though I am a little terrified of most things:) I do like alligators...from a distance, so I created a Later Gator unit to learn and review the er, ir, and ur. I first read the story Zack's Alligator and completed Compare and Contrast graphic organizers with my class. They really enjoyed this story of a boy who gets an alligator keychain from his uncle that lives in Florida. Zack watches as his alligator, Bridget, grows with water throughout the day. I purchased the story and alligator from Steve Spangler's website. I used the big alligator...Bridget all week and purchased small creatures from the Dollar store for each student to have on their desk. I included a data page in the packet for each student to record what they observe. During whole group and workstations my students worked on the er sound. Here are just a few pictures of the pages as my class worked at their workstations.
Here we had our friend Bridget from the story Zack's Alligator visit us. I bought this alligator and the book from Steve Spangler's website.
If you would like to see more click the Teachers Pay Teachers button at the top and check out my unit:)
