Time Saving and Organizational Tools

Teachers can not function effectively if they are not organized. In the past 5 years of teaching, my organizational tactics have changed greatly. My first two years, it was important that my file cabinets and desk were organized. However, now it is my computer that must be organized!

My school has gone 1:1 with iPads for our students. We are encouraged to use less paper, so most of our students' assignments are on the iPad. There are many tools to help keep teachers organized and also save time.

Here are several tools that I use:

1. Planbook

2. Teachers Pay Teachers

3. Sign Up Genius

4. Remind

If you are a Google user, another great tool is Google Keep. This a way to organize notes and to-do lists.

I saw this great video about many ideas on how to use Google Keep in the classroom.
