Label cubbies and desks
Write each student’s name on a label and affix them to cubbies and desks. Have this ready by back-to-school night so students can find where they will store materials and sit.
Keeping students’ materials organized, especially those materials that go to and from school like notebooks and folders, is key. Add student names to labels and spend time on the first day of school gluing or taping labels to each folder and notebook so you always know whose is whose.

Label classroom supplies
Maybe you have bins of math manipulatives or drawers of art supplies to keep organized. Use these labels to organize your classroom so students can help put away materials (read: less time for you to spend organizing and tidying).

Organize completed vs. incomplete work
Label your desk clearly with completed work and incomplete work sections to help organize assignments throughout the day. This system streamlines the process of gathering and turning in work at the end of the day, ensuring nothing gets lost or overlooked.

Label your stations
Make sure your students know how you have set up your classroom by clearly labeling spots such as the reading corner, writing corner, and the library.

Make bulletin board plaques
Laminate labels and staple them to a bulletin board. Then, as you switch out student work, use a whiteboard marker to write the student’s name or a note about each piece of student work.
