Classroom Organization

On top of the already sometimes chaotic environment that can happen in any classroom, organization takes on an entirely new meaning with the Common Core Standards in Washington State schools. The standards demand that students not only know about academic topics, but also be able to use their knowledge in practical ways as well. Although this may seem overwhelming, there are several small steps you can take to ensure your classroom stays organized so that you can continue focusing on helping your students master the Common Core Standards and its sub-dimensions of Use of Physical Environment, and Classroom Routines and Rituals. At Clutter Controllers, we have taken the time to understand the modern classroom and have worked with enough teachers to have unique insights into what they are looking for in organizing their classrooms. But, each teacher and classroom is unique. Let us sit down with you and we’ll take the time to understand your style and what you are looking for in your classroom’s organization needs.

Getting Started

Start by thinking about who you are teaching for and what they are learning. For us to really get the most out of our effort in helping you organize your classroom, we want to understand your teaching goals, and then start organizing your classroom so it meets these criteria. Let’s say you teach 3rd grade math. You want to ensure that students have a clear path from point A to point B as they progress through your curriculum. In order to do that, you will need different resources at each step of the journey and make sure each is easily accessible to each student in your class. Each teacher and classroom is unique – we want to help organize around that and at the same time, when possible, mold our organization efforts around your own style.

What Do I Need?

The following is a list of things to keep in mind when looking to put together your classroom. Knowing what you need before purchasing items can prevent unnecessary spending. Think about these questions first:

How much space do I have?
What does my room look like now?
What items from last year will be reused in next year’s classroom?

Planning ahead is key!

Easy Steps

First, we will work to make sure that your classroom is organized in such a way that students are able to locate resources with ease. If your students know exactly where something is, it’s much easier for them to get started on an assignment. And if they don’t know where something is? Well, you can bet that their workload will suffer and you will also deal with a student bumping around your classroom looking for what they need. In order to help prevent problems like these from occurring, it’s important to make sure your room and its resources are organized in a way that makes sense – this is one of the benefits of hiring the Clutter Controllers team.

The Clutter Controller Team Understands

At the end of the day, many teachers get overwhelmed by their classrooms. We want you to know we uniquely understand your frustrations and we know what to listen for and how to translate your teaching goals into organizing your classroom around those goals.

I kept saying that I would clear out all the boxes throughout my house from moving in. I had forgotten what was in most of the boxes. After five years of maneuvering through a maze of boxes, I finally called Clutter Controllers LLC. Within hours Sheila efficiently sorted through my things and got rid of the items I no longer wanted. She's flexible and accommodating and worth every cent. My only regret is that I didn’t contact her sooner.

Sheila and her team are amazing. I have been working with Clutter Controllers for years. They helped me to set up a business office, organize for a move, organize my garage, and help create systems that work in our home. She is kind and supportive and able to work with every family member to create an environment that is clutter free.

Sheila from Clutter Controllers helped us organize MIL's belongings which were cluttering the garage and family room and seemed like a monumental task. Sheila worked very hard sorting the contents of many old boxes, some of which had not been opened in decades (a few had been contaminated by rodent droppings), re-boxing and labeling the contents. Sheila and her helper moved many boxes from the family room to the garage as well as disposing of contaminated trash and donated items. With Sheila's consultation and advice we ordered overhead garage racks and heavy duty shelving to store the belongings. Sheila arranged for the installation and once done she moved the boxes up to the racks and on to the shelves. She did an amazing job! Our garage looks so clean and tidy and all of the belongings are organized and out of the way. I highly recommend her, she is hard-working and understands how to dig into a huge job with great persistence. Her vision of what our garage could look like was spot on and we are very grateful for her help and the final product.

The best compliment a company can have is a referral. I have given this companies name to a dear friend. There have been a couple of experiences working with Sheila. My neighbor hired her to declutter and pack his entire home while he was in the hospital. I was impressed with Sheila's organization skills, diligence and professionalism so I hired her to help with several areas of my home a few years later. Lesley really helped destress unpacking a kitchen and a couple of bedrooms. She knew when I was stuck and would offer suggestions to keep the process moving. Lesley was a joy to work with and understood the task. We had fun while accomplishing a lot of work. These two are on my short list of people to call when decluttering or improving spaces. I could not have done it all without them

Amazing! Sheila is accommodating, friendly and efficient. Once we discussed my goals, she had no problem taking charge and digging in. She had ways of organizing that would never have crossed my mind! Additionally, she empowered me to let go of items that were just taking up space. Will absolutely be having her come back for my next project.
