Bee Books
Bee books are organizational binders for students. They replace the typical "take home folder" that gets sent home every night and returned the next school day. These binders include a wealth of resources for families to utilize, and they help keep students, parents, and teachers organized too! Many teachers opt to name their organizational binders using an acronym of some sort. Ours are "BEE" for Bring Everything Everyday. Although mostly I'd say that it's a short, catchy name that is easy to say when referring to it. For more information about the concept behind our BEE books, download our explanation page below. We store our Bee Books on a corner shelf. The corner shelf was from Wal-Mart, and was found in the hardware section. Its original design was intended to be used for storing rakes, shovels, brooms, and other garage items. It works great as a binder holder, corner shelf too! Students bring in their Bee Book every morning and store them there. Students generally are trained to take out any notes, homework, money, and their leveled reader. They then put them on the shelf neatly. Last year (2007 - 2008) I switched from a 3-ring binder Bee Book to a 3-pronged folder Bee Book. It worked out very well, and I plan on using 3-pronged folders again.
