As I wind down the year and prepare for the next, it can seem pretty chaotic! At my school, we have a multi-page checklist that must be completed before we can leave for summer. It has to be signed by specific administrators and staff as you turn in items.
I call it the yearly scavenger hunt!
Combine that with completing grades, packing up the room, saying goodbye to students with meaningful activities and there's hardly a moment to consider next year!
For many years, I just packed it "all" up with the idea that I would "just find it" next year. Or better yet, I think "I'll label it as I unpack it". HA! Not only do I never have the luck of finding anything easily, there's never enough pre-planning time to make lists either!
So this year, I am going to start by packing one (1) box each day during the last month of school - with a list of what's inside! I plan to group resources together as I go. This seems so much more "do-able" with just one box a day! And I'm certain that will still leave me time to grade some papers and prepare some activities.
PLUS, on other pages of that legal pad I am going to use to make my packing lists, I am going to make idea lists for new ideas for next year. Two birds... :)
If you're like me, as you generate those ideas, you might start to formulate a plan where some new resources may be needed so a TpT gift card might just come in handy!
