Organizing your worksheets
|
Hello dear Teachers, I �ve got a question for you - how do you organize your worksheets and other teaching materials? Do you group them by level, age of students, skill, function, student �s book they go with, grammar point, topic, vocabulary? I �ve got a problem with that, I mean they very often fall into more than one category, right? I �ve managed to collect huge amount of material so far, but it �s rather a mess right now, so I �m looking for some efficient "storage method" :) How do you handle your collection? Looking forward to hearing your tips :) Hugs from foggy Poland :)

I have my things in main folders and sub-folders:
Grammar and under that I have sub-folders for: verbs, adverbs, adjectives etc.
I also have folders for: games informative worksheets (by category) Ecology Violence Identities - etc
Vocabulary learning: The House Classroom Family Furniture Pets - etc.
Reading materials Writing materials Essay ideas Teaching ideas
Working with Word Program
and many more.
But most important I save all the Wss by title and with the author �s name.

I just print out the WSs I need to use in class and then put them in a few folders I have according to their purpose :) But in my computer it can take me ages to find �that WS by this author � and sometimes I first find this WS here on the site then look at the date it was uploaded and then look through all the WSs I downloaded on that exact date :) Usually I find...if not - I just download it again. Though a few months ago I used the same mehtod as libertybelle �s and have some of the worksheets saved by title and name of the author.

I use the same method with main folders and subfolders, sometimes even subsubfolders to be more precise since my collection is growing and it �s not always easy to find the exact ws that i wanted; e.g. house - rooms - batgroom - furniture / house - rooms - bathroom - objects. I like to keep the dates of the ws; sicne sometimes I find a part 2 missing; so i can search again on the site to find it:) |

Hi friends
I am a kind of organized being, I hate things out of place. This means that I AM ALWAYS STRESSED ; BECAUSE I NEVER MANAGE WHAT I WANT.
Anyway, in my computer I have a folder for my 5th form and another for my sixthies. Inside each one , I have folders according: main vocabulary grammar and sub folders on different items festivities clipart (and zillions of subfolders ) games planning ..... inside each folder I have tons of documents
I also have the author´s name in each printable, well, not all exactly, the first ones I downloaded I didn´´t take note, but now , I always download the printable with its original name and the author´s name.
I also have some folders from our big, big stars, here in ESL
But I keep on looking for a better way to organize all this stuff!!!! NOT EASY!!!!
Hope I have helped, but. my opinion, probably not.
Not the right place to write this, even so, excuse me. let me say a BIG hello to my dear Saraamiriam. Hope everything is ok with you, big hug to Sara
Hugs to all of you linda

Hi!
I organize the worksheets by putting them into folders by subject and grammar items. Like this:
- house
- food
- adjectives
- conditionals
- clothes
- simple present
- simple past
Then I have some folders with the grades where I put special worksheets that I am sure I will use because they are very very good and useful and because they are exactly what I will need in the future.
- 6th form
- 7th form
- 8th form
- Secondary
I also organize them by their names and sometimes I add the author´s name. |
