Hello Y'all,
I worked on my room again today. I sorted and matched listening center books. I now have piles of books around the room, along with everything else. I have center stuff and math manipulatives everywhere. I still have a few boxes of books to sort through.
It's going very slowly, but that's okay. I want to organize it to the best of my ability as I go along.
We do Accelerated Reader tests in 2nd grade and that has been a bear to sort through as well. I'm sorting through read aloud books, book sets, A.R. books, listening center books and books that are very easy readers (which I am sending back to the new Kindergarten teacher).
I'm sorting through my centers and trying to decide which ones are appropriate content for use in 2nd grade or which are too easy. I'm sending some of my centers that I've made back to Kindergarten as well.
I am also cleaning everything as I go, which is very tedious; however, I will appreciate it later!
I'm going to sort my literacy centers and games into general areas and then more specific within each general area. For example, one bin will be phonics. It will then be organized by beginning sounds, medial sounds, ending sounds, etc. I feel that this will save me time during the school year; it is just very time consuming right now!
Well....that's all for tonight.
Night all,
