Organized teachers find that getting all their work completed on time becomes much easier, eliminating wasted time hunting for handouts and allowing them to focus more time on student learning.

   Organization takes a little extra time at the beginning, which more than pays for itself in time saved down the road. The following are tips to be an organized teacher.

   Organize your desk, keep lots of little baskets and trays around your desk to organize small items such as pens, paper clips and notes.

   Have a file box with hanging file folders, one for each day of the week. Put all materials needed each day within the appropriate hanging folder. At the end of the week, clear out and re file any remaining papers left in the folders.

   Have a binder to organize curriculum materials for each unit or by grading period. Put a copy of the lesson plan first, then all the reproducible or resources behind the lesson plan. Next year, you’ll be ready to go with minimal work.

   You may try these for somehow, these will work!
