Around Town Round Up: Structured Work Systems

We know we share structured work systems a lot on our blog. But that is because we love them so much! What's to love? Structured Work Systems:

  • are predictable
  • require very little prep to implement
  • are structured
  • can be used throughout the day
  • can be used for any tasks
  • visually convey work tasks
  • clearly communicate expectations
  • can be used with students at any academic level
  • and more!
Below you will find some of the latest structured work systems we have rounded up throughout the Miami Valley for today's Around Town Round Up. 



Structured Work System Bins
One of the most basic structured work systems can be created simply labeling a set of bins. Many of our classrooms already have plastic bins so we often are able to set these up on the fly and get to see quick results!

Structured Work Drawers
Structured Work Drawers sometimes require a little more planning if they are not readily available in the classroom. We love how they are self-contained and can be easily transported across environments.

Advanced Structured Work Systems
When students are able to do more paper-pencil tasks we often see teams use advanced structured work systems.
