Hope from Second Grade Shenanigans is hosting a link and giveaway. As with yesterday, don't delay! The giveaway is closed tomorrow!!!
Thanks for the ideas! I have a tiny classroom so it's so important to stay organized. These are some great ideas! I have so many chords around my desk and anchor charts coming out of my ears, so I can definitely use these ideas. Thanks!
