Organization Station: Cubbies

Organizing your students' morning and afternoon routine starts with their cubbies! We have seen a variety of visual supports, mini-schedules, and organizational supports for morning and afternoon routines while out in district. Today's Organization Station has several examples of cubbies that help with these important daily routines. 



Labels are a great visual support to help students locate their cubby. Using pictures is especially helpful for students who are still learning to read.

We love the idea of using bins to catch "overflow" items such as lunchboxes or take home binders. The portability makes it easy to bring the bin to their desk, organize items, and then store them. This also prevents everyone from crowding one area at the cubbies.

Do you have a student who struggles to keep their sneakers on while at school. We see this often with our students with tactile sensitivities. We love this teacher's flexibility where she has created a routine for the student to take off shoes and socks to store them. In many classrooms we see the student change into something more tolerable such as moccasin slippers or Crocs.

These cubbies are perfectly situated next to the students' schedules which allows for an easy transition to their next activity when unpacking each morning.
