Description

Wondering how to manage all those center materials without creating chaos or drowning in bins and bags?

In this episode, I’m breaking down how I organize my math and literacy centers in a way that actually works for me (and might just work for you too!). I’ll walk you through what I’ve tried, what didn’t stick, and what I finally figured out about keeping things easy to grab, easy to store, and easy for students to manage independently.

In this episode I share:

  • How I organize math centers by unit using labeled Ziploc bags
  • Where I store everything so it’s ready to go—even on hectic days
  • Why I organize literacy materials by skill instead of unit
  • Tips for reusing materials without making a million copies
  • How to build independence by teaching kids to set up and clean up their own centers
