If you a regular reader you know I’m an organization junkie. It’s all in the name of making my life easier. Not in a “I’m lazy teacher” kinda way, I just don’t want to do any extra work that I don’t have to. I’m freaken busy. Our jobs are hard.

And stay organized. It’s especially hard in the start of the year. Believe me – I get it. But trust me when I say it is way easier to spend a little bit of extra time each day now to stay organized than swim through a sea of paperwork that has now taken over your teacher desk small children on a pinata candy.
