New bag will organize!

Being a traveling teacher is not all fun and games and definitely not organized. I have a delightful rolling cart that serves as my office and classroom lessons storage. It is quite a transition from being a classroom teacher with cupboards and shelves as storage and a nice kidney table or teacher desk to work at. Here is my office. Very fancy right! Almost like a corner office. NOT!

Then I had this. All stuff I have been carrying around to do my job.  Laptop carrying case which I love, files to organize info for each school site. Pencils, pens post its paperclips and glue. Literature to build lessons for all grades k-6 because surprisingly I cannot remember all the standards for each grade and turn them into exemplar lessons without doing some research. Materials and resources that I have gathered and created for teachers. Tools I need to create presentations. etc...


Then I sometimes just need a few things and my lap top so I surrendered and ordered a Thiryone Utility bag. Now that is fancy and a fancy price tag to go with it. But it is working so far. I have a file sorter in my cart and my beautiful dot bag and things are great. I modeled 4 lessons this short week and one was a catch up from last week. I planned it two weeks ago filed it in my cart and I was ready to go today it was actually a really cool lesson on closing paragraphs. I will share in an upcoming post. So far I 💜my newly redesigned rolling office. I highly recommend Thirtyone bags it is my first and will not be my last. This has nothing to with math but it does make me happy so with that I say Happy teaching!
