Organizing My Geometry Unit
Hey guys! The big update is almost here for my geometry unit! It will go live tomorrow morning, but I wanted to share with you how I organized it for my classroom.
Next comes the lesson plans! I like to keep them side-by-side so I don't have to flip back and forth. I structure my lessons like this: Page 1 is day 1 and Page 2 is day 2. Complicated, right? LOL
I take pictures and print them out of completed activities so I can remember what I did the previous year. I also print out what I want my anchor charts to look like so as we do them together I can remember what I want to include.
Center directions and materials are kept in the same sleeve until I'm ready to use them.
Any time I want my kids to take notes I like to have examples of what should be in them.
Here are a few other pictures:
First, I like to keep my units in a binder with page protectors.

| I use the black and white cover for my first page. |

| Table of contents and standards list. |
^The reason why the standards look different is because I live in Florida and we "technically" don't have Common Core Standards. Ours are called Florida Standards... With the exception of a few, they're still word-for-word the Common Core Standards, lol.

I like to keep assessments and their keys together as well for easy grading.

Organizing math units is all about what works for you. Above is how I put my centers out for display. I got this nifty sign holder at Office Max years ago. I like it for centers because if I need to make any tweaks I can do it with dry erase and then wipe it off for next year!
