Logistics, logistics, logistics! Planning out the layout and routines for our classroom to run efficiently has its challenges. Sometimes we work altogether as one team, sometimes we work in small groups and sometimes individually. That means some materials are spread strategically throughout the room for our independent work to keep things running smoothly. However, some things that have our names on them such as homework folders, writing journals, and work in progress folders we need passed out all at once and or at different times. Then there is the matter of our coats and backpacks. Everything overlaps and some things end up on the floor. We would really like to grab our jackets and go to recess quickly and return without a mob tromping all over each other because 5- and 6-year-olds have no sense of space or patience because it's time to get back to learning. Logistics is so important in a busy classroom of 26 energized and ready-to-learn Kindergartners. Yes, I have always managed the dissemination of all these materials, but wouldn't it be great for everyone to go to their table and have what they need all at once with no waiting? More time would be spent on the task of learning! Luckily, there is this product called a Seat Sack storage. It slides on the chair back and is wide enough to store the materials for one student conveniently at the table. How handy is that? If we also had some extra hooks for our coats and backpacks, we could enter and exit quickly and carefully without incident and get right to work, again spending more time on task.
