Sunday Snapshots: My Classroom {Part2}

Before break, I was hard at work re-labeling everything in my classroom that deserves a label!  I wasn't happy with my previous labels, so I made a trip to Lakeshore to find a new solution.  I decided to buy a set of name plates and name tags, and I laminated them right away:

They are from the Dots on Black collection from Creative Teaching Press,

in case you want to pick up some for your classroom!!!

I needed two different sizes because I have big and little bins.  Since I laminated the name tags, I had to cut them out around the label part to get rid of the white edges:

Then I whipped out my Sharpies and got to work writing:

Of course, I couldn't just write in black, I had to add more color!!

Once I wrote all my labels out, I started putting them everywhere!  I used tape on the back of the name plates and some of the name tags, and for other name tags, I easily peeled the label from its backing and just stuck it on!  This is the area behind my desk:

Above the drawers are my favorite read alouds and my teacher resource books.

That yellow bin needs a label!!  Just noticed :)

And a close-up of the drawers:

Is anyone surprised that I have three drawers of craft supplies...

and more in the closet??

{And maybe a TON more supplies in my basement at home...?}

Other drawers say treasure chest, happy birthday, extra folders, paper...

I also keep these back here:

This next shelf is propped in front of my desk, and holds some of my math manipulatives:

And a close-up:

Some other label pictures...

My students drop their Spelling notebooks in this bin each day:

My extra supplies are in labeled bins like these:

And I keep papers for the week in these bins:

I could go on and on with all my labels, but I'll spare you!!

I hope that I gave you some ideas that you can use in your classroom! :)
