I love my doorbell. I am going to give the AFFIRMATIONS a go...love it. Thanks for going the videos and elementary ideas. I teach third however, it is helpful. I alsoblive the supply dump. I just worry about someone "borrowing" someone else's stuff. I am found to guve it a try! Thank you.
I only had one students say something to me about pencils missing, so I just gave her some I had in a cabinet. I think maybe a student just grabbed from the wrong bag and it wasn't intentional.
I am so amazed...I just realized you are in SC...SO AM I! I just did the Science Plus Collaboration in Greenville last month. I am between Columbia and Charleston.
I have a Waiting Room with 20 numbered clothes pins in four different colours. That way it is easier for me to scan the room to see who of my (28) kids is next without calling out the number every time.
Love the accountability of them having their own supplies. I have had nothing but issues using community supplies... They are super wasteful and I plan to try your method next year!
I happened to win a $100 gift card to Amazon from my school recently thanks to a silly competition (but, hey, I’m thankful I won!) and my community supplies have been bugging me to no end this year, so I’m going to use the gift card to get a supply cart and some mesh pouches like yours and I’m going to use your method next year!
My students keep 1-2 pencils at their tables throughout the day. At the end of the day, my pencil manager sharpens pencils and this is when students can get new pencils from their pouch. We also request pre-sharpened pencils on our supply list so a lot of students come with pencils already sharpened.

I’m a new teacher this fall and loved hearing these tips!
Glad it was helpful! And congrats on your first year!
Love the Waiting Room. That us a good way to weed out the non essentials. 😂
Yes! Often by the time I called a student, they no longer needed because they figured it out.

Love the supply idea. I’m definitely going to try that next year.
You should! It's worked wonders this year!

That's a great idea!
I LOVE THE WAITING ROOM IDEA!!! I will absolutely be giving that a try in the upcoming school year!
You should! It works so well! I'll be continuing it next year!

I totally agree! It's definitely helped this year!

Yay! The system has held up all year! I just used gallon ziplock bags this year, but I'm going to upgrade to the large mesh size bags next year.
How do you handle pencil sharpening with this method of supplies?
My students keep 1-2 pencils at their tables throughout the day. At the end of the day, my pencil manager sharpens pencils and this is when students can get new pencils from their pouch.
