Neat and Tidy Desks

Messy student desks drive me CRAZY! Teaching organization is extremely important in first grade. 

At the beginning of the year, the students are taught the way to organize their desks. They put their books, journals, and folders on the left side and pencil boxes on the right side. An added bonus is we review the concept of left and right.

Some of the kids grasp the idea right away to my delight. But others need reminders. So, I created a visual to hang in our classroom to show to my firsties a neat and tidy desk.
