I feel like I'm in a constant state of reorganization in our school--I'm not sure if I'm just THAT disorganized or if it's because I love to shop for office products (truthfully, it's probably a little of both!) I've seen quite a few teachers and homeschoolers use the Desk Apprentice from Staples to organize their stuff, so I put it on my wish list for Christmas...yes, I wish for office products. :) Lo and behold, my mother-in-law bought it for me. Woo hoo!
Here it is in action. From the front, you can see my daily planner (The Well-Planned Day, if you're wondering) and a pack of Sharpies. One side holds pencils/pens and the other holds my 3-hole punch.
Top view: you can see other books around the sides (Life of Fred: Apples, Rod and Staff English 3 books, Classical Conversations Foundations guide, and Prima Latina) and a few other supplies.
The middle section is where I keep a few larger books as well as our daily worksheets. I've found that it's much easier (for me) to plan a week at a time. I organized hanging folders by weekday and then inserted tab folders by subject. I even have a folder for media. At the end of the week or over the weekend, I make all of my copies and write out our plans for the coming week.
So, there you go! I love my Desk Apprentice. It is a little big, but it's a huge help in keeping me organized.
