Step 6: Self-Contained classroom Setup

6 – Organize Class Materials

Action Steps:

Sort and label all materials into areas of the classroom (another great task for support staff).

If students are bringing materials, have an area for extras to be stored.


Lastly, plan routines & transitions.

Get clear on how you are going to transition around the class and campus.

Clarify routines – what order is calendar/circle time completed in? What do students do with finished work? Who resets the work, the schedules? Where do staff get data sheets?

Organize, label, and group like items together.
