Over the summer, I found these perfect storage tubs on clearance at Target. {of course ;)}
I knew they would be the PERFECT solution for organizing my Read and Reveal cards, since at the time they were randomly strewn all over my classroom with no rhyme or reason!
They are called IRIS Photo Keepers. I don’t think Target sells them anymore, but you can find them at Joann’s or on trusty ol’ Amazon. Michaels also has some in pretty colors!
I also finally had the chance to make some labels for each of my Read and Reveal sets! I have one for almost every spelling pattern possible, so you can image why organizing them got tough!
To get started, I printed, laminated and cut out the labels.
Then I used double sided tape to adhere the cover onto the top and front of the tub. I have found that double-sided tape usually sticks the best to things that are laminated.
Then I sorted through my cards, placed them inside the mini photo cases and taped a label on top.
Our Read and Reveal cards fit perfectly inside when they’re folded! So now, when we are learning a new skill and I want to change out this center, I just pull out the photo case I need, add clothespins and stick them into the center tub!
I did the same for our Write and Reveal cards too!
It makes me so happy that the ring of cards AND the dry-erase marker fit perfectly in the case!
If you want to organize your Read and Reveal and Write and Reveal centers too, I included them in the bundle! They can also fit inside of clear shoe box tubs in case you can’t find these photo cases!
