Prepping and Storing Curriculum Materials

July already feels like it's flying by, which means a new school year will be here before we know it. If you're anything like me, this time of year also makes me want to overhaul all of my systems and get freshly organized for the upcoming semester. 

It's no secret that Awe & Wonder curriculum has a lot of necessary pages and components. If you're new to the curriculum, or just ready for a reset, you might be thinking How on earth am I going to prepare and organize all of these materials?

Fear not! We've got some ideas for you.

• Know what you need

  • To prep materials efficiently, it's helpful to have the following items on hand:

    • Laminator

    • Lamination Sheets

    • Velcro Dots (Trust us, you want the dots and not the strips!)

    • Paper Cutter

    • Binders, Binder Rings, or Binding Combs

• Make a day of it!

  • Some subscribers take a day each month to print, cut, laminate, and store all of their materials for the coming month.

  • This can be especially helpful when multiple classes are using the same curriculum

• Invest in some files folders or bins

  • File folders are a great way to store adapted books and other paper/laminated materials without taking up a lot of space!

  • If you have the space, bins are a great way to see what you have at a glance while keeping everything organized!
