Clutter Free Classroom: Week #3 Review

Clutter Free Classroom!!

I know, I know...I've been out of it this week with my posting. I've just been busy busy and tired! But, I'm super excited to share what I've been up to this week!! So our task this week was to begin decluttering...and boy, did I have fun! Our prompt this week: How much were you able to escort out of the door this week? Tell us what you purged and how you felt doing so.

So I didn't get to escort as much as I wanted this week since I had 3 workdays and one of those got cut a little short...but...
Only one trash bag this week, but it was full!!
I was able to get a super big garbage bag and dump a ton of junk into it! I felt wonderful seeing that bag full!! And I only got to a little corner of my room!! Can't wait to see how much I can get rid of from the entire room!! :)

My "give away" box was overflowing! I was surprised!
I couldn't believe that I actually had stuff to give to other teachers just out of my track out cart and back cabinets! Ugh...another bunch of weight off my shoulders!
I didn't take a picture of my recycling bin because I forgot...but there was certainly a lot in there!!
So, here are my little section's "after" pictures...
My track out cart! You can actually see the shelves!!
My "Party Supplies" closet...cups, plates, etc. on the bottom shelf. Winter Experience and Pirate Day stuff on the middle shelf. Extra napkins and plastic bins on top.


My "Teacher's Snacks" cabinet with paper scraps for art projects on the top shelf.

Wow! Look at all that room I cleared out!! I have my coffee supplies (which are essential) on the bottom and extra party supplies on top...plenty of room for more organization!

My track out cart again...I can see all of my supplies and stuff!! Woo hoo!!
Ugh...clearing out just this little corner of my "home away from home" feels amazing!!! You can ask any of my coworkers...I was having a fantastic time!!

  2. I'm glad you got rid of so much stuff! I had "fun" getting rid of junk too. It looks good so far. I can't wait to see the finished product.
