10 Items to Create an Organized Classroom

Organization plays a huge support role in managing your classroom. Easy access to materials and an understanding of classroom flow can have a dramatic effect on student learning. Teachers need to consider special needs of students, room for themselves to walk around and monitor, and how to minimize disturbances during lessons.

Storage bins, carts, crates, and containers are all without a doubt handy in creating the perfect organized classroom environment.  Ready to make full use of your classroom space, but don’t know where to start? We’ve put together a list of items to help you create a fun and welcoming learning environment, right off the bat!

  2. Hello-

    My school district is looking for plastic tubs for our classrooms that measure approx. 12 x 13 x 4. The length and width are flexible, but we are set on 4 inches high. Do you have something along those lines?

    thank you so much!

    best regards-

    • Hi Ian, thank you for contacting us! We do not have any plastic tubs that are exactly 4 inches high. We have one that is 3 inches high, and then several that are 5.5 inches high. Let me know if you have any other questions!
