Small Group Supplies

Small group work is not my forte. I do ok at pulling students for math, but reading is a different story. I'm still trying to find resources that help my students, that don't take a ton of prep, and don't make me want to pull out my hair. One way I'm looking to change and have more effective small group work or even just individual work with my students is to have a supply basket ready to go. 

It seems insanely simple, but before these supplies were in different places and I was scrambling to find them. For example, the students were bringing their own pencil and they would forget them or grab one without an eraser or it would break and need to be sharpened. It was a waste of time and frustrating for me. Well now that won't be an issue. 

As I find things we need on hand and tool that I use often, I'll add them to the bucket.
