hi Panthers this is Polly the Panthers and I would like to share my organize binder with you I used the PTSA suggested Supply to shop for my school supplies and I organize my binder based on this CCMS binder standards diagram I suggest getting a Rangefinder that way is big enough to store your supplies for all six classes  my pencil pouch is where I store my supplies sure these supplies are always stuck throughout the school year I have at least five pencils at all times to blue pens to black pens to red pens an eraser and a sharpener for math scissors and dry erase markers so I keep extras in my pencil pouch so I am always prepared for classes we coloring we need crayons or markers and don't forget to have two colors of highlighters for note taking  at CCMS we are on a modified block schedule meaning we have stacked days Mondays periods 1 3 & 5 on Tuesdays and Thursdays and. - 4 + 6 Wednesdays and Fridays I find it helpful to have one binder organized by class. Let's check out how I setup my binder  in the front is pencil pouch with my school supplies next is my time tracker this is super important your time tracker is used to write down your homework assignments and every class everyday your time tracker is also used during pause it is required that all students have their time tracker with them everyday that's why I like to keep it in my binder for math class we use a separate spiral notebook for notes practice problems and classwork this is only used for math the two pocket homework folder is very useful label the left pocket homework to do and the right pocket completed homework this means when your teachers assign homework you can place it in the to do pocket and once you finish the assignment you can place it in the completed pocket then your homework is find an easy to turn it in on time  after my homework folder is lots of loose-leaf lined paper you need lots of paper in your binder at all time keep extra paper at home so you can refill your binder Supply when it gets low next remind dividers label by class. For example I have first. So that dividers first I suggest using the plastic dividers with the pockets that way you have a safe place to store important papers for that class like your compass notebook or flashcards some classes require subdividers like language arts science and social studies be sure to check that suggested binder supply list your class syllabus for the number of subdividers you need for your glasses  the last item in my binder is the returned work folder when my teacher is passed that class homework and test I put it in this folder until I get home then I save all graded work and a bag at home just in case I need to look back at it later I clean out and organize my binder at least once a week it helps me stay organized and prepared it's cool if you need any help with your binder talk to your school counselor or your teachers they will help you with an organized binder you're guaranteed to have a great school year good luck Panthers
