Classroom storage is an important component to any classroom. Teachers need to keep their classroom organized for many reasons. Keeping students focused is hard to do if a room is cluttered. Organized classrooms are a place where students can learn and thrive. Teachers can involve students in the day to day responsibilities of keeping a classroom organized. Using classroom storage is the main way to keep a room organized. Here are 3 ways teachers use classroom storage.
# 1 Storage for Students' Belongings
Storage Cubbies For Kids
Storing students' belongings has many purposes. First of all, it gives student a sense of belonging. Knowing that they have a special place for their items will give them a sense that they are important and their items from home will be safe. It will also help students to take responsibility for what belongs to them.
Cubbies are an ideal way to store students' belongings. Cubbies can be as simple as cardboard boxes, plastic bins or solid wood units that are built to last. Creating a separate cubby for each student has shown to be a popular strategy in classrooms. Teachers can label each cubby with the child's name and perhaps a picture of the child. Students can keep their coats, backpacks, lunches, and snacks in their cubby. Teachers can put student's take home papers and projects in the cubbies for easy organization. It's kind of like a child's first interaction with a mail box. They get excited when something new shows up.
# 2 Storage for Classroom Supplies
Keeping classroom supplies organized and easily accessible to students is another important aspect of classroom storage. Storage areas such as the Mainstream Sand Dune Gentle Wave Storage Set offer a fun, practical storage area for classroom supplies. These types of storage units have shelves and cubby areas for large classroom supplies. These types of storage units are ideal for holding toys, blocks, and larger bins.
For storing smaller items a cubby storage center with removable plastic drawers is best. These drawers can be used to store manipulatives, small blocks, plastic letters, art supplies, small instruments, and more. Teachers and students alike can remove the plastic bins as needed. These types of storage units give students the opportunity to be responsible for the items in the classroom and help the teacher with organization.
# 3 Book Storage
Another storage area that is important to a classroom is book storage. Being able to display books for the classroom and for student use is necessary during class time. However, there are also times when being able to store books away to make room for other activities are necessary as well.
Classroom book storage units allow items to be displayed when needed, but can be moved out of the way when necessary. This keeps books safe and accessible to students but gives teachers the flexibility to make more room in the classroom when necessary.
Whatever type of storage you choose to use in the classroom, keeping students' belongings, classroom supplies, and books organized helps with the overall order of the classroom. Consider adding some practical classroom storage units to your classroom today. An organized storage system makes every teacher's day easier.
