Free Printable Student Binder
Student binder printables can help students keep all of their important school and class information organized, setting them up for success from the moment they head back to school!
![first grade homework binder Student Binder Cover](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Student-Binder-Cover-800x1200.jpg)
The student binder printables are baaaaaaccccckkkk! 🙂 Over the past few months, one of the most common questions I have received is, “When are you going to update the student binder?!” Well, I’m thrilled to say that it is here! This year’s binder still features two color scheme options and many, many printable pages that will help you stay organized throughout the school year!
(And even if you’re not a student, there are still some of these printables that you could use too, so don’t run off just yet! 😉
[You can see all 300+ pages of free printables that we offer on the blog in our Free Printable Library !]
Student Binder Supplies
This post contains affiliate links. For more information, see my disclosures here .
Before we jump into the binder tour, here are a few of the items you’ll need to put together your student binder:
- A 3-Ring Binder (I like this one and this one .)
- Colorful Tab Dividers (I like these ones with pockets and these ones without .)
- White Tab Dividers
- 3 Ring Binder 3 Hole Punch (I have this one .)
- I like to use a label maker + clear tape to label my divider tabs.
- Printer- I have this kind . I prefer to print my binder printables at home, but of course you could always send them off to your local print shop or office supply store to be printed as well.
Free Printable Student Binder Pages
A pretty binder cover.
The first thing that any binder needs to have is a pretty cover, and this binder is no exception! I made it bright and colorful with plenty of room for the owner’s name and/or contact information. I printed my cover out on white card stock just to make it a little sturdier.
![first grade homework binder Free Printable Student Binder Cover in a 3-Ring Binder](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Student-Binder-Cover-Horizontal-680x453.jpg)
Class Schedule
Next, I was sure to include a class schedule. You can keep track of what class is happening when, where, and with whom with this simple printable!
![first grade homework binder Class Schedule Printable, Student Binder with Free Printables for Back-to-School, study aids, high school organization, college organization, middle school organization, pretty printables, printables for girls, printables for boys, resources for students, back to school, graduation gift, student organization, teacher printables](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Student-Binder-Class-Schedule-453x680.jpg)
Student Binder: Planning
I then divided the binder into a few sections to keep everything neat and organized. The first section is planning, of course!
Goal Setting Sheet
You know I never create a binder without including a goals page! I am kind of obsessive about goals because I really think that they work!
Whether you’re a student or not, it never hurts to write out a few of the things you’d like to accomplish over the next year. I’ve also left room to write out some action steps you can take to get yourself closer to your goals.
![first grade homework binder Goal Setting Printable, Student Binder with Free Printables for Back-to-School, study aids, high school organization, college organization, middle school organization, pretty printables, printables for girls, printables for boys, resources for students, back to school, graduation gift, student organization, teacher printables](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Student-Binder-Goal-Setting-453x680.jpg)
Monthly Calendars- Dated and Undated
Everyone– students and otherwise– can always use a monthly calendar. This one includes July 2023-December 2024 for over a full year of pretty planning! And if you’re thinking even further ahead than that, I’ve included undated calendar pages so that you can create a calendar for any year you want!
![first grade homework binder](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/September-2024-Calendar-Page.jpg)
Two-Page Weekly Planner
Another printable that everyone could use is this two-page weekly planner. Each day is broken down by hour to make it easy to use time blocking or just keep a close eye on your schedule. There is even room at the bottom to set some goals for the week and make notes.
![first grade homework binder Weekly Calendar Printable, Student Binder with Free Printables for Back-to-School, study aids, high school organization, college organization, middle school organization, pretty printables, printables for girls, printables for boys, resources for students, back to school, graduation gift, student organization, teacher printables](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Student-Binder-Weekly-Calendar-680x453.jpg)
Daily Planning Printable with Time Blocking
If you want to go even more in-depth, you can use the daily planning printable, which has even more room to schedule your time, make note of people you need to contact, and keep track of miscellaneous items in the notes section.
![first grade homework binder Daily Planning Time Blocking Printable, Student Binder with Free Printables for Back-to-School, study aids, high school organization, college organization, middle school organization, pretty printables, printables for girls, printables for boys, resources for students, back to school, graduation gift, student organization, teacher printables](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Student-Binder-Daily-Plan-453x680.jpg)
Daily Routines Printable
The final printable in the “planning” section is a daily routines printable. Sometimes it’s helpful to clarify which items need to happen each morning (like packing a lunch or filling your backpack), afternoon (like finishing homework or doing chores), and evening (like picking out clothes for the next day or planning the next day’s schedule). This little printable can help you do all of those things!
![first grade homework binder Daily Routines Printable, Student Binder with Free Printables for Back-to-School, study aids, high school organization, college organization, middle school organization, pretty printables, printables for girls, printables for boys, resources for students, back to school, graduation gift, student organization, teacher printables](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Student-Binder-Daily-Routines-453x680.jpg)
Everyone probably won’t need all of these different printables for planning their time, but I wanted to make sure I provided a bunch of different options so each person could choose the printable or printables that would work best for them!
Student Binder: Tracking
There are sooooooo many details to keep track of when you’re in school, and the next section of the binder is devoted to just that.
Assignment Schedule + Exam Schedule
I know I was always overwhelmed on the first day of class when I would get my syllabus from each teacher and immediately be bombarded by assignments and test dates. The next two printables– an assignment schedule and an exam schedule– will help organize those things so you never miss a deadline.
![first grade homework binder Assignment Schedule Printable, Student Binder with Free Printables for Back-to-School, study aids, high school organization, college organization, middle school organization, pretty printables, printables for girls, printables for boys, resources for students, back to school, graduation gift, student organization, teacher printables](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Student-Binder-Assignment-Schedule-453x680.jpg)
Reading Log Printable
If there is one thing I’m thanking myself for as an adult, it is that I was an avid reader from an early age. I know I’m a former English teacher, so this is expected from me, but reading is so, so, so important! This reading log makes it easy to keep track of your minutes/pages read.
![first grade homework binder Reading Log Printable, Student Binder with Free Printables for Back-to-School, study aids, high school organization, college organization, middle school organization, pretty printables, printables for girls, printables for boys, resources for students, back to school, graduation gift, student organization, teacher printables](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Student-Binder-Reading-Log-453x680.jpg)
Student Binder: Subject Sections
I divided up the next section of the binder into the different subject areas and included the same few printables in each subject tab.
![first grade homework binder Colorful Tab Dividers with Pocket for 3 Ring Binder, Student Binder with Free Printables for Back-to-School, study aids, high school organization, college organization, middle school organization, pretty printables, printables for girls, printables for boys, resources for students, back to school, graduation gift, student organization, teacher printables](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Student-Binder-Tabs-with-Pocket-680x453.jpg)
Grade Tracking Printable
First, I included a grade tracker. It’s never fun to get to the end of the quarter or semester and be surprised by your grade, so this printable will help you keep track of all grades along the way so you know exactly what to expect.
There is a column to list each grade, and then one to keep a running total on the far right. Print one off for each class and get tracking!
![first grade homework binder Grade Tracker Printable, Student Binder with Free Printables for Back-to-School, study aids, high school organization, college organization, middle school organization, pretty printables, printables for girls, printables for boys, resources for students, back to school, graduation gift, student organization, teacher printables](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Student-Binder-Grade-Tracker-453x680.jpg)
Next I added a simple-but-pretty notes page so you can keep all of your class notes nice and organized. I would print out a bunch of these at a time to have them handy any time I need to take notes in class, make a list, or just get some thoughts down on paper!
![first grade homework binder Notes Printable, Student Binder with Free Printables for Back-to-School, study aids, high school organization, college organization, middle school organization, pretty printables, printables for girls, printables for boys, resources for students, back to school, graduation gift, student organization, teacher printables](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Student-Binder-Notes-453x680.jpg)
Project Planning Printable
My very last printable in each subject section is a project planner. All of those school projects have so many little details, and this printable is the perfect place to keep track of them all! (Plus it’s cute, which always helps! 😉 )
![first grade homework binder Project Planner Printable, Student Binder with Free Printables for Back-to-School, study aids, high school organization, college organization, middle school organization, pretty printables, printables for girls, printables for boys, resources for students, back to school, graduation gift, student organization, teacher printables](https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Student-Binder-Project-Planner-453x680.jpg)
A Second Color Scheme for the Student Binder!
In past years I had several requests from moms of boys for binder printables that weren’t quite so pink! As a fellow boy mom myself, I completely understood the need for more options for boys, so I created a second color scheme option that would work for boys or for girls who just prefer blue to pink.

Free Printable Student Binder: Frequently Asked Questions
I typically update this post every July with calendar printables for dated the upcoming school year. There are also undated calendar printables included with both color schemes, so if you’re thinking ahead to future years, those can help!
These printables are designed to be printed on standard letter-sized paper (8.5″ x 11″).
We sure do! If you’re looking for vertical calendar printables and/or calendars with a Sunday start, you can snag both in this calendar printable post .
You can get both full sets of binder printables sent straight to your inbox via the button below!
The student binder printables are simple, but when used consistently, they can truly help make your school year (and your life!) so much easier!

Hi, I am making a student binder for my cousin for her graduation gift. Is there any way you could update the calendar printables for this color scheme and design? Or is there any way I could update them myself with word?

I agree! I’m going into 8th grade and I thinks they will motivate me to work hard thanks!!
I’m not a student, but a teacher and I love your printable. Especially the fact that it is simple and the calendar starts with Monday <3 (I'm from Europe, I'm used to starting with Mon)
Thank you, Noemi! I never know which day to start them! Monday seemed to make sense for this one since it is geared toward the school week. 🙂 Hope you’re having a wonderful day!
I must say I am fairly new to your blog but I am absolutely in love! Thank you so much for sharing all of these amazing resources. The blog looks fantastic, congrats on all the success!
Thank you so much, Lindsey!! So nice to “meet” you! 🙂
I kinda wish I was in school, just so I could use these. :o) Super cute, as always Abby!
Lol! Thank you so much, Leah! You are the sweetest!
Both the former teacher and now parent in me love these! Aside from being beautiful, they help teach our kids time management and goal setting – so important. Great resource Abby!!
Thank you so much, Melissa! That really means a lot! <3 Hope you are having a wonderful week!
Thank for this awesome printable! Have a great week!
I wish I had had these back when I was in school, they are stunning!
Thanks for the printables! I went back to school two years ago to finish my degree, and my 4yo is starting preschool this year. This planner is perfect for organizing my busy class schedule, assignments, and study topics, as well as my family’s schedule and my toddler’s preschool commitments.
I am so happy to have found you. After NOT being a pre-school teacher for the past 15 years, i find myself back in the swing. I have very dated pages and these are so lovely and fresh . I know the parents and the students will enjoy them immensely. Thank you so much for sharing.
Abby, these printable are beautiful! Thank you SO much for sharing them for FREE! My daughter (5th Grader) and I are excited to use them to help keep track of all of her school work! They will also be a wonderful way to manage my volunteer work… and my Mommy work! Again thank you, Abby!
Bless your soul. I was looking for an attractive school printable. I may promote this in a youtube video! Thanks.
Those are really pretty. You do awesome work! Keep it up 🙂 from a university student
These are adorable! Thank you so much~
I was just wondering why with the my weekly planner the numbers on it start at 5? go to 12 then repeat from 1 to 12 again.. Im not sure I get why?
Hi, Sally! Those are hours of the day so that you can time block your tasks if you choose. 🙂 I hope this helps!
Oh I see, I am just used to using the 24 hour clock… 🙂
Hello! I am a current 7th grader and i have been looking EVERYWHERE for organizational supplies for a school binder I was working on. Thank you so much for these printables! I was looking for some stylish, matching, useful prints and you certyainly gave me exactly that! I will be sure to tell ALL of my friends where I got these prints 🙂 THANK YOU!
Yay! So glad they’ll be useful for you, Jordan! Happy organizing!
Abby, I love these! Sure wish I had these when I was in college 😉
Omg you are beautiful 😀

That is awesome, Rachel! I’m so glad that the printables are helpful! You are going to be the most organized person in class! 🙂 Hope you’re having a wonderful weekend!
Are you going to make planner printables for after July 2016?
Hi, Halie! I will probably make a new Student Binder for next school year. Right now I have a full 2016 planner available at https://justagirlandherblog.com/planner . I hope this helps! Have a wonderful week!
As an online college student, it can be quite difficult at times to stay organized and on track. I ended up downloading the Assignment Schedule, Exam Schedule, and the Grade Tracker. I wish I would’ve seen these at the beginning of my Fall semester but now I have them all ready for the start of Spring semester. Thank you!!
So glad the printables are helpful! Best of luck in the upcoming semester!
What a HUGE help! Awesome design, awesome ideas! Thank you so Much!
I loved your planner! It is amazing! Thank you for sharing it! Pamela Buenos Aires, Argentina
I absolutely love this planner. Is so perfect for students, and ive found so many student planner but none like this one. Sadly I found it a little bit late I’ll not be able to take as much advantage of it as I would have liked. Really hope yo make one for the 2016-2017 school year. If you do I’ll be one of the first ones of getting it! So excited!
Hi Paola! The updated student planner will be available this summer! So glad it’s been helpful to you! ~Abby =)
I’m a college student and I’ve been looking for some studying printables and cannot seem to find any. Need something to organize my notes a little better and I love how you layout your printables. Is this something you’d consider making? PLEASE let me know! Thank you!
Hi Catherine! I’ll add it to my printables suggestion list! Thanks! ~Abby =)
I loved it! I’ve been looking for a while and this one is so complete. THank you! I wonder if your next planner is going to have a similar style? The school year in Argentina starts around March and ends around November (and exams are usually around December/January/February), so technically I can only use half of the planner :'(. And of course… I just found it haha. Nonetheless, I’m going to use it! Thanks!
Hi Carolina! It will be updated this summer and yes the style will probably be similar! Glad you like it! ~Abby =)
I love the printable student binder! Any chance of an update that includes the rest of 2016?or if it already exists could someone please show me where 🙂 🙂
Hi Amanda! The student binder will be updated this summer at some point! I’m glad you’re enjoying it! ~Abby =)
I love your printable student binder 🙂 Awesome! <3 -Sandra
This binder is so cool! One of my friends is a diverse learner and we are try ing to help her. This binder is exactly what we need!!
I love these! Are you going to create a new calendar for the upcoming months?
Hi Mila! The student calendar will be updated in the summer for the next school year. If you’re looking for a printable 2016 calendar, you can find it here: https://justagirlandherblog.com/free-printable-2016-calendar/ . Thanks and have a great day! ~Abby =)
Hi! I will be going to college in the Fall of 2016, will you be making a new set of printables with the updated calendar dates? Thanks! I love this
Yes! You can expect to see an updated set sometime this summer! Hope you’re having a great week, Cassie!
Hey! I really loved your student binder printables from this year 😀 I know it’s kind of early but could you make the calendars and stuff with dates for next year? It’s my senior year next year and I just want to get a head start on organization. Anyway, thanks for making so many awesome binder print outs, I find them very helpful! Thanks, Nicole 🙂
Hi, Nicole! The student binder will be updated this summer. Glad you enjoy them! Have a great week!
I was just looking through these and think they’re adorable!! I wish I saw them last year, now I can’t get the calendar but all the other things are SOO adorable!!
Thanks, Natilee! The student binder will be updated this summer so, maybe you’ll be able to use it next year. Thanks for stopping by!
Hi! All these printables are adorable! I want to make this planner for my daughter’s high school graduation… Are you going to be updating the calendar for the upcoming school year? Also, is there any way to edit them for her specific needs?
Thanks for making these! ?
Hi, Emily! The student binder will be updated this summer! It is not editable at this point. Thanks and have a great week!
Hi Abby! I absolutely love your student binder printables! They are so cute! I was wondering when would you have an updated printable of the student binder calendar? You currently have August 2015 – July 2016. Wanted one through July 2017 is possible. Thanks a million!
Hi, India! The student binder will be updated this summer! So glad you are enjoying it!
I love your student binder, however I’m not a student I’m a high school teacher, I would love a grade sheet for me to keep track of student grades on paper to match my student binder (which I have made my teacher binder)
Thanks for the suggestion, Tiffani! We’ll keep that in mind when updating the binder this summer. Have a great week!
Thank you for sharing this and for making them free. I am hoping to be better organized this summer and fall semester.
I assume this are geared towards having them all in one binder rather then in the binders for each college class?
You can use them however they will be the most helpful for your, Rachael! 🙂
Do you have the 2016-2017 calendar? If not, can you tell me when it will be available?
The planner will be updated this summer!
hi i am in love with your blog and thanks for the binder can i get the calender of 2017 to 2018 and 2018 to 2019
Those are not available yet. We update the student binder each summer. Thanks!
Hi Abby! I noticed that the binders you recommended were 1″ but I was wondering if that is the size binder you recommend or would a larger one would work better? Thank you!
Hi, Shannon! I use a one inch binder, but you can use whatever size works best for you. Happy organizing!
Hi I really like this student binder! I was wondering when you will post the updated version of it for this coming Year 2016-2017.
Hi, Chanelle. There was actually an update in the post. You can find it here: https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/2017-Monthly-Calendar.pdf . Thanks!
I’m a Senior in High School this year and I’m starting to look around for college ideas. Came across this binder and it is probably the greatest idea I’ve seen! Saving this for when I start college!
So glad you like it, Kalysta!
This is so pretty…I almost wish I was a student so that I could use it myself! 🙂
This binder is perfect for my daughter who is just about to start high school! She really likes the layout and I love the useful pages. Thank you!
When will all 2017 binder items be available?
Hi, Donna! It has been updated and can be found here: https://justagirlandherblog.com/printable-student-binder/ . Scroll down and you will see the 2017 calendar.
First of all, I wanted to thank you for creating something as beautiful as an Erin Condren LifeBook for students, for free. I love it! Secondly, I wanted to ask why the weekly plan pages start with the number 5 and go to 12, then start over at 1? I’ve been racking my brain trying to think of why but can’t figure it out! Thanks!
Hi, Katherine! Those numbers are for time blocking. So you can schedule in what you plan on doing at 5 am to noon, and then it starts again for 1 pm. I hope this helps! Have a great day!
I found your blog not too long ago while looking for some organization tips and subscribed right away. I was so excited to see the information about the student binder in my email today. My oldest daughter and I both have ADHD and organization/follow through is the area we struggle with the most. She will be starting 7th grade next month and we can’t wait to see how well this works for her. Unfortunately our attempts to keep her organized and prepared for school last year were not successful. Thank you!!
I used this last year and I love it. Your printables inspire me to get stuff done
I LOVE this! I am a mom of 2 little ones, I work from home on the weekends, I’m starting a blog (still preparing for launch), and I’m going back to school for my master’s degree next semester. So to say the least I am BUSY! The idea of going back to school has intimidated and overwhelmed me. But this planner makes me feel so much better! I can definitely use this to help organize the many components on my plate. So thank you!
Love all your printables, Abby! You can tell you put a ton of work into creating this!
thank you abby for the printable, i think this will help my 3rd semester a lot. But, can i print it on A6 planner? I have A6 binder. Usually i printed it on my B5 paper, but i would like to make my B5 binder to be college binder. could it be possible for to print it on A6 paper? Thank you 🙂
Hi, Yasyfin! Sadly these printables are just in the standard 8.5″ x 11″ size. I would guess you could find a student binder in the A6 size on Etsy. Have a great semester!
These are great! Starting off as president or another officer for many clubs this year, this will help me keep track of everything while still saving me money, thanks for this!
So glad it’s helpful for you, Angelyn!
Hi, I love this binder!! I’m a student and can not wait to use this once school starts! I want to print this in a printing place like FedEx of something but I’m not sure what kind of paper to use. i was wondering if you could recomend which one would be best(30% recycled, 100% recycled, lazer 24 lbs, lazer 60 lbs, lazer, or gloss??) Thanks
Hi, Tali! The paper I usually use to print at home is 20#, 92 brightness, so it seems like the 24# would be closest to that. I hope this helps! Have a great day!
I’m entering my Freshman year, and this is just what I was looking for! These are so cute, and my style, too! And I’m even more happy about how they are free! Thank you soo much!
Thank you so so so much for doing this! It will be such a huge help this school year. Also, I absolutely fell in love with your fonts and was wondering what fonts you used for this? Thanks!
Oh my gosh, I love love love all of your organization tips and printables! They are so cute! You have inspired me to put my life in order:) Thank you so much for making and posting these. They will be so very helpful this school year. Just wondering- what fonts did you use for the school binder printables? Thanks again, Harmony
These are awesome! Do you use premade templates? Or come up with your own designs? Your printables are always adorable
Thank you so much, Kimberly! I come up with my own designs! Then sometimes I’ll do different versions of the designs that I really like. I hope this helps! Have a great day!
These printables are truly amazing! I will be a junior this year and these will definitely come in handy. Thanks!
These are absolutely awesome and adorable! I’m such a procrastinator and so unorganized and I think these will definitely help change that this semester and all the ones to come!! Thanks!
So glad you like them, Morgan!
Hi Abby, I have been trying to print the binder stuff and it let me print the calendar but not the rest of it. Can you help me? I just love this, and would really like it for 4 of my grandchildren. Sincerely, Christine
Hi Chistine! Can you email us at [email protected] and give us more details about the trouble you’re having? We will try to help out and we check email multiple times a day so it will be much faster to get through to us. Thanks!
Hi Abby, You student binder is just what we needed this year! Happy to be getting us all organized in our homeschool and have it all look fabulous. I’m actually at a planning weekend and just noticed the 2017 calendar runs Monday to Sunday rather than Sunday through Saturday. Funny I didn’t notice that in the picture you posted. Thanks for getting us off to a great start for 2016/17!
I love your files, but after I download the pdf it will not print. other files from other sites do. uh.
If you download the file to your desktop and open it with the default PDF viewer on your computer, you shouldn’t have any trouble printing from there. Please email [email protected] if you are still having trouble. Thanks!
How do you create your own printables? I’ve looked everywhere and I can’t find a free and easy way to create my own schedule. I need to be able to edit it every once in a while for school. Please help!
Hi, Kathryn! Are you a subscriber of Just a Girl and her Blog? If so, you can login to the printables database and there is a free PDF on how to create your own printables. If you’re not a subscriber, you can gain access here: https://justagirlandherblog.com/get-organized/ . Have a great day!
Abby, Thank you SO MUCH for all of the time and effort that you’ve put into creating these pages and offering them for free. I am ever so Grateful. I am starting to HOMESCHOOL for the first time this year and I believe these printables will aid me with this endeavor.
Yay! So glad they will be helpful for you, Kim! Love to hear that! Have a great weekend!
I love this! Would you mind if I use a link to this post and a picture from it for a “back to school” round up post I’m working on?
That would be great. Thanks for checking, Charlene!
Hi Abby! I loved this!!!!! Is there an option to print this 5.5 × 8.5? The so much, Martina (from Argentina)
Hi, Martina! The student binder is only available in full size at this time. We do have a planner that is available in 5.5 by 8.5 that you can find here: https://justagirlandherblog.com/organize . Thanks and have a great evening!
Hi Abby! Let me start off with “I LOVE YOUR BLOG” it is amazing. I just stumbled upon your blog by accident, but I found it very intriguing and I cannot get enough of it. I just want to say I love your student planner. I have been looking for one that will fit my busy schedule for college. Again thanks and you are doing a wonderful job!!
You are too sweet! Thanks so much, Ramona! I’m so glad it will be helpful for you! Have a great school year!
I used the Exam and Project printouts back in Spring semester and it was super helpful! I ended up printing out enough for each of my classes and sticking them in sheet protectors at the front of each tab for each of my classes. I keep everything logged in my actual planner, but being able to look at what I’ll be doing for the entire semester was great! My classes for Fall start this coming Monday so I’m in organization/prep mod and I immediately came back to your site to get some more printables! I plan to do a short vlog on how I organize for school and I’ll most definitely be living your link on said vlog! Thank you again!
Awesome! So glad they’ve been helpful to you, Taylor! Have a great school year and definitely come back with a link to your vlog! I’d love to see it!
Hi! I adore these printables but just wanted to mention there is a error on the weekly plan. The numbered lines begin at 5.
Hi, Emile! The numbered lines are intended to help you plan out your day hour by hour. Since most people don’t generally wake up before 5 am, I started with 5 on purpose. So sorry for the confusion. Have a great day!
I like your creative binder so much =)) Hope there’ll be a 2017-2018 one too !!! By the way , could you tell me the font of the letters in the binder ? Love it !
Hi Chichay! So glad you like the binder! This one can actually be used any year as most pages aren’t dated and we have included an undated calendar as well as the 2016-2017 calendar! The print font is Futura. SignPainter is the cursive one. Have a great weekend!
Thanks so much , Abby =)) Have a great weekend , too ^^
Hi Abbey ?. I really L.O.V.E the student binder planner. It is amazing. Can you please tell me how to edit the monthly pages in word ? As, our school week starts from Sunday not Monday . If possible i’d like to know . Thnx ? 😉 Summer
Hi, Summer! The binder is meant to be printed out and written on. It is not editable in Word. Sorry!
I LOVE THESE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank You!
So glad you like them, Sydney! Have a great week!
Hi IM FROM SOUTH AFRICA.AND I LOVE THE FACT I CAN JUST PRESS DOWNLOAD AND GET THE PRINT QUICKLY.
So glad it was helpful for you, Cindy!
I was wondering why the weekly plan starts out with a 5? Love these those, they are super cute
Hi, Karen! We just assume that most people aren’t up before 5am so that is why the day starts at 5! 🙂
Oh my goodness these are everything I wanted and needed and more!! I can’t get over how pretty they are, how perfect they are for my school life, and how dang FREE they are!! ? Thanks so much for making these!! I will definitely use them!!
Aw, yay! So glad they will be helpful for you, Megan! Have a great school year!
This is really great! My BFF is a diverse learner and all of my friends and I have been looking for ways to help her. This will work perfectly
So glad it will be helpful! Have a great evening!
I am wondering how to print
Hi, Indya! You can download each page of the student binder individually by clicking the link below each photo, or download the entire binder in one document using the link at the end of the post. Then you just print like you would a normal document. I hope this helps!
Wow! This is exactly what I have been looking for!!!! 2017 is going to be an insane year for our family, this is perfect and really stylist! THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So glad it’s helpful, Emma! Merry Christmas!
Can you make a organizational sheet for kids sports?
Ooh that’s a good idea! I’ll add it to my list. Can you tell me a little bit more of what you had in mind? Like keeping track of their game and practice schedules? Or milestones they’re trying to hit in their sport? Or what? Hope you’re having a great day Brandi!
Thanks so much! Have a great weekend!
hi abby, thank you so much for these they are so cute and helpful!! I was wondering when the 2017 one was coming out?? I am from Australia and we start school in a few weeks
Hi, Isshell! If you scroll to the bottom of the post, you can download the entire binder which has been updated for 2017. Thanks!
Hey they look amazing but i dont know how to print them its not working it really sad they are really cute though. i believe they will work very well its sad i cant though
Hi, Maddie! Sorry you’re having trouble. Are you getting an error message? You should be able to download the file and open them in whatever program you use to view PDF’s on your computer and print from there!
I just started my first semester of Nursing school and this printable are great. Thanks! I absolutely love it!!!
Yay! So glad they’ll be helpful for you! Good luck with your first semester!
I love it, thanks I really wanted one of those planners
Yay! Glad it will be helpful for you, Catalina!
I love this binder, it has helped me to be organized in college this semester.
Yay! So glad it’s been helpful for you, Stephanie! <3
Hey are these for half size planners (5.5 X 8.5 inches?)
The Student Binder is full size. We have half size planners here: https://justagirlandherblog.com/organize
Hi Abby, I am a student in high school and one of my goals is making sure that my life is organized. I could not find anything through other websites. But when I searched this morning and looked up life organization binder ideas and saw your blog. When I went into your website it was so simple and so easy to use. I have printed out the things and now going to start but it’s nice that you have them as free printable. I am on spring break right now and trying to organize my life because that was part of my new years revolution but never have been able to and could not find the type I want. So this has been one of the best blogs or organizing websites I have found. Thank you and I love your stuff.
Hi!! What font did you use on the calendar printable?
Hi, Melanie! The script font is called SignPainter and the other one is Futura. Hope you’re having a wonderful weekend!
hey , I love your student planner and I was wondering if you are going to make one for 2017 – 2018.
Hi! Glad you love it! Most of the binder has no dates so it will work for every year but we do update the yearly calendar each year and update that post. There is also a blank yearly calendar included. Thanks!
hi I have another question what type of paper did you use for the planners?
I just use standard copy paper for mine. You can find more info about what I like to use here: https://justagirlandherblog.com/simplify-home-binder-tour/
would cardstock work?
Sure! You can print on any kind of paper you would like!
Just wanted to thank you for these printables. I want to surprise my daughter who will be a freshman in August with a new planner she can personalize and this is just the thing. It’s not so basic like the school planners and she can do so much with it. Thanks!
Yay! So glad they are helpful, Rosa! Congratulations to your daughter!
Hi Abbey, I think your printables are really pretty and practical too. I seem to recall you had some YouTube tutorials on how to create our own using Word, but I cannot locate this? Coukd you please send me the link as it’s holidays here in Australia and I want to have a go at creating my own! Thanks so much!
Hi, Joanne! If you subscribe to our blog, you will be given access to our library of free printables which includes the tutorial you mentioned.

Hi Abby! I’m back for my third year lol! Just wondering when will you update the calendar for the 2017/18 school year? Thanks for keeping my family so organized❤️
A new student binder will be available next Tuesday! 🙂 Glad it’s been so helpful for your family! Hope you’re having a great week!
Omg! I am in my senior year of high school and these are going to make it so much easier to stay organized. You are my new hero!
Aw, yay! So glad it will be helpful for you! <3
Dear Abby, I love your free student binder coz it will be useful for me. Maraming Salamat po, it means thank you very much in Philippine language. Always a fan of your work. Rennie Lapuz
Aw, so glad! Thanks so much for your sweet message! Hope you’re having a wonderful week! <3
Thank you so much! Just printed the student binder! xxx from Greece with much love!
Yay! So glad! Hope you’re having a great week! <3
Wow that is absolutely beautiful! I love it! Makes me wish I was back in school again! LOL!! I have a question regarding your planners. I am new to planning and just getting ideas if I should go with a binder with all the beautiful printables, or one of those premade types? Or is there a way to work with both of them? You make such great printables and I would love to somehow incorporate them into a premade planner. What I don’t like about the binder type is that it’s so cumbersome because it doesn’t fold in half and takes up more room. So if you have any ideas, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks, Sandi
Hi, Sandi! If your planner had the three rings in it, you could certainly add the printables to it. The new version of our Simplify printables are coming out in a few weeks, and they will include half sheets that fit in a small binder, so that would take up less space if that is the issue you’re having. Happy planning!
This is great! It sometimes takes so much to get students organized and the fact that this is so easily accessible is awesome! Just the fact you can print this out right at home and fill it out makes life 100% easier on individuals.
Aw, good! So glad it will be helpful for you, Charlotte! Hope you’re having a wonderful week!
Abby- this is amazing!!!! My son will be starting 8th grade in a few weeks and Ive been looking for something “perfect” to helo him get more organized and stay organized!! You never fail to amaze me with awesome printable. Thanks so much
Aw, yay! So glad it will be helpful for him, Carrie! Hope you’re having a wonderful week!
thank you so much…it is so nice.
Hi, I love all your printables!!!! they are awesome. I cant seem to get the student binder, when I press the link “I WANT PRINTABLES” nothing happens. Please help I really need this in my life!!!!!
Hi, Heidi! Shoot us an email at hello {at} justagirlandherblog {dot} com and we will get you those printables! Sorry you’re having trouble! Have a wonderful day!
helo abby i dont have email so cant print and sheets out how else can i do it i am a bit stuck because i kind of need them because they will help me out a lot in school please can you reply as soon as posible
Hi, Scarley! Email is the only way we are able to send the files because they’re so big. Maybe see if you can use a parent’s email address?
Hi I am in love with your student binder printable but I am having some difficulty understanding how to print them!
Hi, Nyssa! You should be able to open it and print it with any program that will open a PDF. If it’s not working, try a different program. I’ve heard Adobe Reader works well, but Preview (if you have a Mac) should work just as well. Thanks!
hey abby, love the binder i was just wondering if there is a way to download just one section?
Hi, Isshell. You aren’t able to download only one section but you don’t have to print it all. You can select certain pages in your printer settings I’m sure. Thanks!
Hello! I have a daughter with anxiety / ADHD. She wanted something to keep track of her homework and exams, I am hopeful this works for her as she is entering High School.
Aw, I hope it works for her, too! Have a great school year! <3
Love your organization ideas – so creative! Where did you get the colorful pocket tab dividers used in the pictures above? I love those colors!
Hi, Cydni! Just on Amazon! I have everything linked at the bottom of this post: https://justagirlandherblog.com/simplify-home-binder-tour/
Thanks and have a great day!
Thank you so much for the printable, its just what I needed to help keep myself organized for my classes!
Oh, good! So glad it will be helpful for you! <3
I love this printable! I am ten years old and I love diy and printing out things like this to organize with! Even though I’m homeschooled these will be very helpful! Thank you for making these. Bye the way I subscribed to your channel.
So glad it will be helpful for you, Hannah! And thanks so much for subscribing! Have a great school year! <3
Love these! I’m a teacher in a really low income area and I asked my students to purchase a planner to help them keep track of assignments and stay organized but many of them can not afford one. I will use this for those students.
Aw, good! So glad it will be helpful for them! Have a great year with your students, Kelly! <3
Is there a way that you can send me the student school free printable’s?
Hi, Brianna! Can you let me know what email address to send them to? We tried to send them to [email protected] and it said the email address was not valid. Thanks!
If you could explain to me how to print this that would be great.Love the idea!!!!
Hi, Miranda! What trouble are you having printing?
Hello, I love these printables but as a nursing student A4 size is too big, do you do these in A5 (half letter size) also?
Sorry, Andrea! This is the only size we have available at this time. We have a half sheet organizer/planner here if you’re interested: https://justagirlandherblog.com/get-organized-2018
Have a great evening!
I wanted to ask if there was any chance you could make like divisions for classes with a blank space for us to fill in with the name of the course. It’s just I love your printables, they are so cute and useful and I will never find schemes like yours
Hi, Ariana! That is a great idea! I’ll add it to my list! Hope you’re having a great day!
Thank you so much. I’m so glad you liked my idea! Hope you’re having a great day too!
Thank you soooooooooooooooo much. These printables are so helpful to me and also thank you for making them free to read and enjoy. You are an angel Love you lots XOXO
So glad they will be helpful for you, Athaliah! <3
Hi, I was wondering if you are going to do one for the 2018-2019 school year.
Hi, Kayla! The new binder will be available this summer. Thanks!
Could you make a version of this printable that fits a Create 365 planner? I use that planner all the time and I really like these printables but I di not want to create a separate binder for school. Thanks!- Katie
Hi, Katie! This is the only version of the student binder, but our Intentional Life Planner is available in two sizes. Not sure what size your planner is. You can check it out here: https://justagirlandherblog.com/get-organized-2018 . Thanks and have a great evening!
I don’t know where to find how to print these. I would love to, but it says I have to pay, I thought they were free printable s?
Hi, Lydia! They are free. Sorry you’re having trouble. If you send us an email at hello {at} justagirlandherblog {dot} com we can email you them in PDF form. Thanks!
Hi there. Just stopping by to see if you are planning to make a student planner (blue color scheme) for the 2018-2019 school year. I LOVE your printables.
Hi, Therese! The student binder should be updated by the end of the month. Thanks! 🙂
Hey Abby. I came across your student binder while I was in college. Now I am a teacher and I am going to give my students their very own binders. I have taken a few pages out because they are a younger class. I will let you know how they work out.
Great! Hope they’re helpful for you! <3
These are amazing!! Thank you so much for making these – and in 2 different color schemes!? These will be amazing at helping our family get more organized and in helping teach our children to become more responsible for their grades and projects. I think these will work amazingly well for alll our kids, grades 3rd-7th. I’m probably going to use these in my own lesson planning.?
Yay! So glad they will be helpful for you, Stefani! Love to hear that! Hope you all have a wonderful year! <3
Hi Abby!! I was just wandering if you could inbox me the class schedule, grade tracker, exam schedule, and the assignment schedule printables?
Hi, Aliyah! If you sign up via the form that pops up when you click the button, they should come right to your inbox!
Hi, Aliyah! Did you sign up to receive the binder? We can’t send things separately. They come all together. Thanks!
Thank you so much for the amazing printable. My daughter has dyslexia and organization is a challenge. I hope these will make things a little easier for her. One question… is there a specific reason why the daily and weekly plan start with the number 5 instead of 1? Thanks so much!!!
Hi, Debra! Those are times. We assume not many people are starting their day before 5am! 🙂
Thank you so much for sharing! I share your link with all my Early Childhood Education students each semester, and they love you! Michelle
Aw, yay! That is so sweet! So glad it has been helpful for them! Have a wonderful weekend, Michelle! <3
I am extremely picky when it comes to planners and printables, but this student planner looks terrific! What a wonderful and generous item to offer to your readers. We homeschool, and I am going to use this with my middle schooler and my high schooler. I think it will make my lesson planning simpler. I can just plug the lessons right into their individual planners. Thanks for the blue version. My son would have died rather than use a “My Little Pony” colored planner. Ha! My daughter and I love the colorful version
Thank you so much for your sweet words, Rachel! That really means a lot. I hope the planners will be helpful for you all! Have a wonderful week!
Hi Abby, the link you have to download these awesome printables isn’t there. Would you please check your link? I was soooo bummed to not be able to download these pages. Thanks!
Hi, Melissa! I just checked it and it is working for me. Sometimes if you try to click the link as soon as the page loads, you’ll get an error because the scripts haven’t had a chance to load yet. If it’s not working for you, try to give the page a minute to load, and then click the link, and it should work. So sorry for the confusion!
Thanks much Abby! 🙂
Hey Abby I can’t find where the actual documents are! I used them lady year but can find this one. I can easily view the article but can’t see the actual binder document
Hi, Ranai! You click the big pink button and enter your info, and we will send them your way! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
I’m not even a student but I’m still going to be able to get good use out of some of these. Thanks for making these and especially for letting us just have them for free! You rock.
So glad they will be helpful for you, Sarah! <3
HEYYY! this is absolutely amazing!! Im so thankful for this! should i print it out using the front and back settings?
Hi, Ayra! You can print it out that way if you want to but it’s not really meant to be printed front and back. Thanks!
I love that you have a blue option for my son! Thank you!
Yay! So glad it will be helpful for him!
Yes .Queen .I’m in middle school and i’m just know fining this no joke i just sent this to my friends love this .
Yay! So glad it will be helpful for you and your friends, Chasydi! Hope you’re having a great school year!
Hey Abby! Coming from a teacher of 19 years, teaching students to plan sets them up for success! I love all your ideas and your blog!
I love your printables! Thank you for offering these for free. I am homeschooling my 5 year old this year and I have been searching for free printables to help plan and organize. I especially love that you have blue, my favorite color and have a boy.
Oh yay! I’m so glad that they will be helpful for you! Hope you have a wonderful week!
Well, here I am back again! My Early Childhood majors love your student planner, and I send them your website link every year! Thank you again, Michelle
LOVE to hear that. So glad it is helpful for them. Hope you all have a great year! <3
This is absolutely amazing!! Im so thankful for this. Thanks for making these and especially for letting us just have them for free.
Yay! So glad it will be helpful for you, Olivia!
Have a great weekend!
Hi Abby, Thank you so much for the beautiful design. For some reason I never received the access information to print them out. Please help!
So sorry they’re giving you trouble, Cindy! I just sent you an email with the info!
This is a great resource. I’m just curious what age range you think this would be appropriate for. Thank you!
Hi, Bonnie! I had middle school/high school kids in mind when I created it, but some of the pages could certainly be used with younger students as well. And I’ve had some college students tell me they’ve used it too, so it can definitely be adapted for many ages!

This looks really similar to the binder we used in my first grade class I did my student teaching in this fall - it works SO well to keep them organized and teach responsibility. Our kids were responsible for taking everything out of their binder (homework, notes from home, etc). We also used it to communicate about daily behavior - I don't have a class of my own yet but I'm definitely going to use this when I hopefully am teaching first grade next year. The kids also had a Monday folder where we sent home completed work, newsletters, flyers from the school etc. It only goes home once a week. I love the reading briefcase by the way - we didn't have that and I think its a great addition.

We do BEE books, but this is so much better! I especially like the skills learned every nine weeks being in the binder. I'm gonna have to do WOW binders next year! http://rowdyinfirstgrade.blogspot.com/
I would love to know how to keep these looking so nice- we did this for the first graders this year, which I was thinking was so awesome. But they didn't last the entire semester :( I would love to hear any and all tips to make them more successful. Jennifer
That is FANTASTIC! Thanks for sharing such an amazing idea with the rest of us!

I LOVE THIS!!! I have used purchased agendas and they have worked well but we are out and no money for any more. Did the school provide the supplies for these or did you? Trying to figure out the finances for next year.

Would you share your nine-week checklist with us...I love this idea!
I really like the W.O.W. binder. It is so inclusive! It's also much harder to lose a binder than the Take-Home folder that I currently use! Thank you for sharing!

This is similar to what I have this year. I love the idea of presenting the skills for the grading period! I also have a reading strategies page and comprehension reading strategies page in the binder as well....thanks for giving us such a great idea!

I teach Kindergarten and I use TIGER binders with my kiddos to help teach organization skills and responsibility. It is never too young to start. I include the money folder, class expectations and rules rhebus, homework calendar, school calendar, daily schedule for parents and a folder for take home papers and bring back papers. It works great and has really helped my students with organization. Jenea www.seedsofnoledge.blogspot.com

I would love a copy of your nine week skills lists. Could you please, please, please post them on this site?

Love it! We do BEE Books (Bring Everything Everyday) for first grade and I did FISH Books (Family Involvement Starts Here) in Kindergarten! I include pretty much the same contents. I do love how you have the skills learned section though! That is too cute... or should I say WOW! Thanks for sharing! Love snagging good ideas from you! Beg, Borrow, Steal www.mchaffiek.blogspot.com
I love these. Do you purchase everything or does your school do that for you?
![title= first grade homework binder](https://www.blogger.com/img/blogger_logo_round_35.png)
I LOVE this idea. It begins to get the kids ready for the grades when they have to do it all on their own!
![first grade homework binder first grade homework binder](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgi8GeF0Lat71J-xoHgh3mS7eA2DMqwS_Umn19jJIBRTfgnk5GKwjSXeKAuSiXajSxmBGGeOh-k50dkAj9JrrNDl5D_eVjAi7bgyeNH7K6fdSjDkEzL9EzRyuKDMo__2Q/s45-c/penguin.jpg)
I'm curious as to who buys all the binders and all their components? I assume your school, since there are so many parts involved. It seems like a rather expensive venture. I make "homework folder" for my class every year, that I have to purchase, then I label them with labels I make on my computer at home, put in clear pocket protectors for various things, etc. I also send an explanation letter to the parents. I send homework packets home on Monday, then they're returned on Friday. I gotta tell ya, by the end of the first month, about 75% of the folders are lost or ruined. It's just not worth spending the money on something like this for me, as I would have to foot the entire bill. That being said, I LOVE this idea, and will definitely file it away, just in case I ever escape my current situation. ;-)
That is a great idea! I recognixe Scarlett's Muffins - you use Exhursions? I am piloting it for our school this year.

Those are FABULOUS!!!!! My class has Panda Folders, but these would be far more durable and easy to communicate with. Thanks for sharing such a great idea!!!! Alexandra http://thefirstgradesweetlife.blogspot.com/
@ChiTown Girl and @Sass Class...the only thing I purchase for the binders is the paper for the front cover, the labels for each divider and the poly envelopes for the Reading Briefcase (about $10 for a class set through Office Depot). The other supplies are very inexpensive and are on the kids supply lists. 1 binder, 1 notebook, 1 pencil pouch, and 5 pocket dividers! In my 3 years in first grade, I have never had anyone lose a WOW binder. {knock on wood.} @Kinderpond--most of the binders really hold up well, but there are a few that I may have to ask the parents to replace about half way through the year. I let my kids keep them in their desks throughout the day, but I know there are some teachers who keep them in a bin or on a special shelf to keep them safe throughout the day!
Ah...I had a feeling that's how it was done, and sorry to sound so whiny again, but that would NEVER happen at my school. I can't even get our parents to send pencils and/or crayons. I have to supply EVERYTHING. Scissors, glue, crayons, pencils, and so on and so on... That's why I haven't upgraded my homework folders yet. Thanks, though, for the insight. :)
Binders are awesome! I use them for everything. Our students have binders,too! I also awarded you the Stylish Blogger Award! :-)

I have BEE Books. I supply everything (including the binders) because there is NO WAY I'd get the supplies I needed for the books from my students. I've included many of the same things you have in yours but not the 9 weeks Skills Checklist. I really like that. My parents love this binder. Although, it can be a pain to keep up with (especially since I only have a 35 minute planning period.) But, my parents love it and it is CYA for me.
![first grade homework binder first grade homework binder](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqFTgaeNq5gZzmjiX7tvuP21jBKs-yIBIKma07jpEZbCDs0qr83i27Gb0MWrj8srTxxTWsTA-xr5AWt5pN2u8L0cUX818_mP8B3kp6w9AqPAe_oiF40waHdY5q208PIA/s45-c/blog+banner1.jpg)
When I taught, I did this same thing only I called it something different. In addition to what you have, I also had a place to record their daily behavior and an information section that housed info such as the lunch calendar, school system calendar, class monthly calendar, etc. I taught second grade and the students were very proficient in removing all of the things out of the binder that needed to come out and be placed somewhere else. I would check whatever else stayed in them after that. They knew to leave their binders on top of their desks if there was something inside I needed to see. Otherwise, it went into their cubbies for the day. My parents loved it...me too! For the people who worry they won't last, use Avery brand binders (seem to last MUCH longer!) I always had some that I could reuse each year. I also printed up binder rules that went on the back cover. Each child and parent had to sign the rules. I bought everything for the binders with my own money because in the school system I worked for we were not allowed to tell students to bring supplies. All we could do was say "we need these things if you are able to donate any." Needless to say, we didn't get all we needed.
Could you post your quarterly expectations list? I would really like to see this as well. I do a FROG Book...love them. I had to put the cost for the first year out and then put the binder and pencil bag on the supply list so now I have a supply. If they have to be replaced during the year the parents get a new one.

![title= first grade homework binder](https://www.blogger.com/img/blogger_logo_round_35.png)
I too would LOVE to see your skills checklist! I think this would be a great resource to add to my binders. I LOVE the idea of hightlighting the skills the kids need to focus on at home! p.s. I just used your Pair of Pears project and the kids LOVE it! It was a perfect project to reinforce all the homophone work we have been doing. Thanks for all your inspiration. If you prefer emailing the skills list I am klannon65@gmail Thanks again!
Would also love to see the list of first grade skills! Love your site!
![title= first grade homework binder](https://www.blogger.com/img/blogger_logo_round_35.png)
I would love a list of quarterly expectations too! My email is [email protected]
@ everyone...I will ask my friend Kim if the skills checklist is okay to share! {She developed the checklist!} If she gives the okay, I'll post the PDF soon!!!
Thanks Sarah for letting us know about checking with Kim. I have been checking back everyday to make sure I didnt miss the posting! :0)
I do something like this in my classroom. I call them STAR binders (Students That Are Responsible) and I have 3 page protectors with a class list, a description of my classroom discipline policy, our class rules, a copy of the 10 commandments and our memory work for the week (I teach at a parochial school). Then I also have 3 folders--reading log, Homework, and a keep at home folder. We also have the zipper pocket in the front. Our school planner is in the binder too. I'm going to have to add the reading briefcase next year. I love that idea!
![title= first grade homework binder](https://www.blogger.com/img/blogger_logo_round_35.png)
I have used KID Books the last two years in Kindergarten. I LOVE it!! I chose K.I.D (Keep It Daily). my parents like having it too. Anything important goes in here
I am a first year teacher and love this idea! It is a wonderful way for parents to know what will be expected of their children. I would love to see the fourth quarter, first and second qaurter sheets to start planning for next year! Thank you for all your wonderful posts:) They have helped me through my first year!!
This is amazing. I can't wait to use it next year. I love feeling inspired :) -Jessica http://wonderfulwatermelon.blogspot.com/
my first graders had a WHALE last year (weekly homework and little extras) and they are super similar to your WOW binders. I added a handwriting page, class list, and their Friday folders (they're http://www.thepageprotectorstore.com/ and you can totally hole punch them if you use a heavy duty punch). I love that Smith's Room has a ton of acronyms for these... you can make your binder match your room theme, your school mascot, or anything else! http://www.smithsroom.com/MOOSE_Acronyms.htm

Love, love, love your 9 weeks skills checklist! Would you please send me a copy of one (or all of them)? I teach 2nd grade but would love the template to modify it for my grade level! Thank you so much!!!! Ashley from Auburn, Alabama [email protected]
I really want to have these this year and wasn't sure exactly how to lay it out. I like having the skills you are working on...I haven't seen that in many. Great blog. Anais
I would love a copy of your skills list!! I do a BEE book which is similiar and also has the spelling words for two months in a plastic sleeve. I love this idea though!!! THanks for sharing! My e-mail is [email protected]

Could you please send me your nine weeks checklist and your directions page?!?! Thanks [email protected]
This is lovely! At first I thought it was for "at school" and that was why I repinned it. I have been looking for a way to keep my kids more organized at school with "unfinished work" and papers they need to keep in their desks. I love this for sending home though. It seems like something that the students and their parents might take more seriously, and therefore I'll get things BACK more often!
![title= first grade homework binder](https://www.blogger.com/img/blogger_logo_round_35.png)
I love this idea!!! Would you be willing to share your directions page??
I didn't know if you were sharing your nine weeks checklist. Thanks
I was actually going to ask the same thing...I would love to see your 9 week checklists! The binder is awesome! Thanks for sharing!!
Hi, yes could you please let all of us teachers, who fell in LOVE with this binder, know if you are able to share the content (especially the 9 week skills checklists)! Anxiously waiting to hear your reply! Jaime [email protected]

Our Weekly Binder System
This is our second year homeschooling and my first year teaching two kids. I have a first grader, kindergartener, and 3.5 year old. We have been using this weekly binder system for organizing our curriculum for a couple months and it’s just simplified the mornings so much for me! I feel organized instead of scattered.
Instead of grabbing 2-3 work books each, the kids just grab their binders with that week’s work in it. So I’ll show you what goes into each child’s binder, how we fill it once a week, and how you can easily set one up.
![first grade homework binder Organize a homeschool week using this a 3 ring binder system with tabs for homeschool subjects!](https://blueandhazel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Homeschool-binder-system.jpg)

How we organized homeschool curriculum for the week before switching to binders
Originally, I just had a metal cart on wheels that held all our our homeschool books.
Each day I’d take the kids’ stack of books (2 each for math and language arts), flip to that day’s page of a subject, and do that day’s lesson. It wasn’t a bad way to do it actually, but I could never really say, “Go grab your schoolwork” to the kids because there were so many different books and things I pulled from.
The binder solves this for me. They can get their binder with everything we need for that day (and week).
The second issue for me with the old way was that it was tricky to visually see how much work was left for the week. I thought maybe sticky notes in each book placed at the beginning and end of the work for the week might be helpful, but opted to try this binder system instead.
What is a weekly binder system?
This is the system that we have implemented in our home to organize and hold one week’s worth of homeschool work. With this system, each child has their own binder. It holds all the worksheets divided into subjects, and has a place for finished work to go in the back.
At the end of the week, all finished work gets filed away somewhere else, and you would fill up the binder again. (You could start a file for each child with the year on it and put the finished work in there.)
Most curriculum I’ve seen is ordered by days, so you could tear out the next 5 days worth of work.
Why a binder system has simplified homeschool for us
It’s helped me to be organized for the week. By tearing out 5 days worth of math and language arts, I can see how many pages we have to do at a glance.
I can print off a few extra activities and keep them in the binder in case we feel like it. No more searching for where I set that printable we were going to get out this week. It’s in the binder.
It motivates the kids. I notice the kids seem to love seeing their binder getting empty during the week. They see bite sized chunks instead of thick books. “Only 3 more pages!”
They can do all their week’s worth of math in a day, or spread it out lesson by lesson or day by day. Sort of step 1 towards being independently motivated I guess.
Switching subjects takes a lot less time. It is SO fast for me to just open the next tab in our binder to switch subjects…because the work is all there. I just feel more organized and less all over the place.
It’s a perfect place to store some of those homeschool printables. I love finding printables that look fun, can be cut out, or go along with our nature theme that week. Since these are loose papers, a binder is a great spot to put those. Usually things like this are just for fun if we get to them.
Supplies you’ll need to set up a weekly homeschool binder (for each kid)
You’ll need:
- A thick 2 inch binder . The 1 inch binders don’t leave room for a wide ruled notebook and all your other tabs plus work, so I would not buy 1 inch.
- Color coded plastic subject tabs (these are the ones I bought)
How I organize our binders by subject
You’ll want to label your tabs according to the subjects you have curriculum for.
Not all subjects will be paper based. For example, our 1st grade history and geography is not in our binder because we are reading living books on Early American History, and playing geography games to learn where states are with their matching capitals.
For my kindergartener:
- reading (I wrote it as “Dash”, which is her Dash Into Learning activity sheets plus corresponding beginner reader book) Get yours 20% off with code BLUEANDHAZEL20
- Extra (tracing pages and any fluff worksheets I find she can do just for fun…she loves that stuff!)
- done (a folder for all finished work that week)
For my 1st grader:
- language arts
- science (mostly nature study)
- done (to put all completed work for the week)
What goes into our homeschool binders for kindergarten and first grade
For kindergarten, we really only focus on reading, writing, and math.
Since Teach Your Child To Read in 100 Easy Lessons is a book and doesn’t go in the binder, math is the only “must do” tab each day for her. We are using Level 1 from Masterbooks this year. Side note, all Masterbook pages tear out very easily with their perforated edges!
We also aim to do some kind of handwriting, either one tracing page or a sentence of copy work from the bible. This goes into a wide ruled notebook, which I’ll store in her binder.
My 1st grader does math and language arts daily (this year we are using Masterbooks language lessons for a living education and math lessons for a living education). We also often use some kind of copy work from the bible or other form of writing if there’s not enough in that day’s language arts.
He does science once a week. We mainly focus on nature study as a family (all kids included, even my 3 year old) with Exploring Nature With Children I highly recommend this, and SO simple even for us non nature-y raised folk).
I did buy Adventures in Creation level 1 from Masterbooks to try with my 1st grader once a week along with Exploring Nature with Children. It’s also all nature study, and compliments our other nature curriculum so well! That’s where any of the worksheets come from for “science”.
How we decide what goes into each subject
I’m not sure how each company’s homeschool curriculum is organized, but the two I’ve used (The Good And The Beautiful and Masterbooks) have a set number of lessons for the year/ or level.
I never feel the need to plan out what lesson goes on which day, we simply do the lessons in order. So if you’re just starting a binder system and you’ve already finished through lesson 30 in math, then you would place lesson 31-35 in next week’s binder tab “math”.
Where it gets tricky is if a subject in your curriculum is made to do just 1, 2, or 3 times a week. Then you will just pull out that many lessons each week, not the full 5. Or add more if it seems too easy!
I generally pull about 5 lessons out for math and language arts. And even though we have a 4 day work week (5th day is our nature co-op), it’s not hard to do 5 lessons in 4 days.
And honestly, Masterbooks lessons are purposefully so short that we sometimes double up if the kids still have focus left in them.
Other items I keep in our binders
![first grade homework binder What goes inside of our kindergarten and homeschool weekly binders](https://blueandhazel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/homeschool-weekly-binder-system.jpg)
A wide ruled notebook . This keeps a nice record of copy work to see handwriting improvement, and is where we write and practice copying spelling words.
Flash cards. I use Masterbook’s right brain math flashcards (they tell you the answer) for simple addition problems. We take them out when the curriculum tells us to and practice about 10 at a time.
Spelling words week by week for easy reference. Our list came with our language arts book, so I just tore it out and put it in the front.
A printable clock. I made ours, and it’s in both kids’ binders since they are both learning time. You can get this in my Etsy shop , and the clock comes in yellow, blue, and black and white.
Number tracing printable . Also in my Etsy shop and in both kid’s binders. These are an easy add on to any day to practice number formation.
![first grade homework binder](https://blueandhazel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/number-tracing-printable.jpg)
What to do if your homeschool books don’t have perforated edges
A lot of curriculum does not come with handy little perforated edges you can tear out.
For instance, I’m supplementing my kindergartener’s math with some fun worksheets from The Good And The Beautiful Level K. I rip those pages out I want each week, but the edges are torn from a spiral binding so very choppy.
I learned that you can take your books to an Office Depot or similar place and they will cut off the binding for you! I’d just call ahead to ask if they do it.
Downsides to tearing out your curriculum
One thing I’ve run into with tearing out curriculum is that it’s tricky to ever go back and find something again. Once it’s out of order and filed away somewhere…your not likely to be able to look on your child’s work neatly organized in order. I’m not too worried about that since I don’t plan to keep it all, just a few samples throughout the year. But just a thought!
You can organize all 36 weeks using a crate system
We actually opted to try a crate system for organizing a full year’s worth of homeschool curriculum by week . I spent a day doing that, and now just go to that week in the crate and get all the worksheets in there to file in the binder.
However, I’m not sure I love it, because it’s not super flexible if you work ahead or get far behind. I think next year, we will simply keep all the work in the original books, and tear out one week at a time for the binder.
Other ways to organize your homeschool curriculum
The binder system is just one way to store curriculum.
I’ve seen people:
- Keep a shelf for each child’s books.
- Buy each kid their own metal rolling cart.
- Simply keep curriculum on a shelf like I used to do and swap what books you need as you go for each kid.
- Give each child a clear plastic bin (labeled with their name) with all their workbooks in it. It’s easy to store, doesn’t require tearing out pages, and you can keep pencils and personal reading books in there too.
Find a system that works for you
The most important thing is to pick a system that makes sense for you. It needs to make your life easier!
If the thought of tearing out pages for each subject for each kid stresses you out, then maybe just try getting each child a bin for all their books.
I hope you’ll share what works or what hasn’t below! And I’d love it if you would head over to Instagram to follow our daily homeschool activities there. You got this!

This is so dang great! I’ve been working this year at putting each day’s work in a clipboard but it’s very time consuming on a daily basis and if I miss an evening set up it cuts into the morning work because I have to catch up the clipboard. This is way easier and I’m annoyed I didn’t think of it! 🤣
Thursday 29th of December 2022
I think you'll love it! You can organize the tabs by day with all worksheet subjects to do, or organize by subject and put a week's worth in each subject. Hope it helps!
Tuesday 13th of December 2022
Thank you for post! I am homeschooling my son who is in kinder and he gets this long pouty face :( everytime I stack the books in the table. I'm going to try this and see if it helps with the moods. He's always asking how much we have to do so maybe if he sees exactly how much he has to do he'll have a better attitude.

I hope it helps!

We use a binder system but by month. It’s great to grab and go if we want to do school away from the house (library, cafe, friend’s house, park, etc).
Tuesday 19th of April 2022
O that's a neat way to do it. Do you still organize papers by week x 4 folders for a month? I'd love to hear more!
Wednesday 16th of March 2022
Super curious - does this mean curriculum cannot (and possibly should not) be reused? Will be homeschooling the up coming year for the first time.
Tiffany, most of the curriculum we use is one time use. Our math workbooks, handwriting pages, and some other subjects get written in and tossed. I buy again for each kid as needed. Some curriculums sell a PDF version, but not all. If you think you'll save money with multiple kids you might want to try that, but honestly it's not usually that much cheaper as you still have to buy the PDF version and then use your own paper and ink. Another option is to make copies of your books for your own family use if you want to just buy one physical copy to use for more than one kid.

Homework binders for pre-k, kindergarten, and first grade.
Have you ever considered encouraging your Kindergarten, Pre-K, or first grade students to keep their homework and papers organized into a homework binder? I started using organizational binders with my students about two years ago in my kindergarten classroom. The purpose of these binders is to help the children keep their homework and other papers organized, and to help parents stay organized, too! My students’ parents report that they LOVE the binder! They always know just where to look for the most important papers that need to be signed and where the homework and Read Aloud Charts will be found. It is so much easier for them to keep everything organized this way!
Last year, I started off the year by giving each child a brand new binder. But even so, I have noticed that many parents buy their child a different binder anyway, keeping my binder at home. I assume that many of them may have thrown it away! So I asked the parents to either provide their own binder or buy the one that I gave their child. As I recall, I think I asked for $1.50. About six or seven parents chose to buy their child a new binder, and gave me back the one I purchased. I put all of the prepared contents into their child’s new binder, and then saved the other one for a potential new student. Most of the other parents did give me the money, but if they didn’t, I just let it go. The best part was that I got back the unused binders, and regained some of the money that I invested in the binders.
I use one inch binders that I bought in 8 packs at Sam’s Club , and they held up for the great majority of the kids the whole year. I usually have to ask a parent to replace maybe one a year, usually because the child has been too rough on it and the rings got too bent to close. I only had one child lose her binder last year. When it didn’t show up after about a week and a half, I called. It eventually was returned, having been left in a non-custodial parents’ car.
Our binders have the following items inside of them:
* A name page slipped into the front pocket. I use FileMaker Pro and make seasonal pages with each child’s name on them, and they enjoy coloring them in. My clip art is mostly from www.djinkers.com .
* A page protector with their monthly Read Aloud Chart .
* A page protector with their sight words on them, so that the parents would know what words to work on at home.
* During the last trimester, I added a chart in a page protector to practice sounding out words on their RAN boards . A RAN board is a Rapid Automatic Naming Board. (Click here to read more about them and download an editable copy.) The children were supposed to read all of the words on the chart as quickly as they could. Then the parents were supposed to write the date that they practiced with their child, hopefully practicing each night (Well, some of them did it!) I think that the kids whose parents really didn’t know how to work with them really benefited from this the most- if they actually did it! About 20-25% of the class tends to “ignore” this assignment each year- and I can really tell the difference in terms of how well their children are doing in sounding out words!
* A plastic binder divider page with a pocket for their most important papers. I print a sticker that says, “Overnight Express” and the parents are told at the beginning of the year that anything that comes home in that pocket should be signed and returned the next day in that pocket.
* A plastic binder divider of a different color with a sticker on it that says, “Homework: Return at the end of the week.” The homework is supposed to stay in the binder all week, and they are NOT supposed to do the whole thing in one night. Occasionally, the kids turned in their homework early, not realizing that it wasn’t time. That was the only problem that we had with that. Of course, this happens with any homework situation. Click here for a free, editable, download of my weekly homework cover sheet and an explanation of a nice, easy system of how to manage it.
* A regular folder (three ring punched) with a sticker that says, “Leave these things at home.” They are supposed to take all of these things out daily and leave them at home. Last year, I referred to it as the “Puppy Dog Folder” since all of them had puppies on them. I try to get everybody the same kind. One year, I got them all plastic folders rather than cardboard. They held up better, but don’t seem to hold as much and are usually shorter than the paper ones, so they don’t hold construction paper projects as well. The plastic ones are usually not as stiff, and are therefore harder to stuff with papers.
* A zippered pocket for flash cards. I put a sticker on it that says, “Please use this pocket for flash cards only !” This was important to me because I use the small (1″ x 1″) flash cards from the CVC Book all the time with my students, and they come up in their homework frequently. (See the picture below.) If I provide a place for the children to put them, then I don’t find them floating around all over the insides of their backpacks ( as much! )
The student sized CVC flash cards come all on one page. |

I had my aide stuff the binders each day that they needed to have something go home, because I didn’t want to bother teaching the kids to stuff them. That was probably a “Lazy Heidi” mistake- they should learn to do it themselves- but I just didn’t want to take the time.
I am really glad that I gave these binders a try! I think it was worth it in terms of time and money. It was also far less frustrating trying to get permission slips and other important papers signed and returned. Yippee!!!!

Student Binders: Improve Student Organization
By OneStopTeacherShop
Classroom organization is a key component of any successful classroom. As teachers, we want to make sure our students have a place for their homework, classwork, supplies, textbooks, notebooks, and anything else they will use in our classroom. Student Binders are the perfect way to set up students for a successful school year and teach them the organizational skills they will need for life. In this article, I’ll show you how I set up student binders and what I include in them to keep students organized all year!
![first grade homework binder](https://i0.wp.com/onestopteachershop.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Student-Binders_-Improve-Organization-2.png?resize=565%2C565&ssl=1)
It’s all about the Binder!
To begin with, be sure to add a binder to your student supply lists. Make sure you add a special note for students to supply a “Heavy-Duty” binder that is at least 1.5 inches wide. Obviously, any binder can work, but I have found that this type of binder is the most durable binder for students. If getting a binder from each student just isn’t an option, you could use 3-prong folders and use one for each section. This isn’t as ideal as a binder (keeping everything all in one place) but can do the job if necessary.

Make Student Binders Special!
My favorite part about using student binders is being able to create a fun cover for my students. If you like to have themes in your class each year, you could create a special theme cover. Not using a theme? You may want to use your school colors or something your students are into. Here are a few fun covers for some inspiration.

Think Dividers
Consider using dividers if you are looking to get the most out of your student binders. I prefer to have a few key sections in my student binders. 1. Weekly Agenda & Calendars 2. Homework 3. Student Data & Progress Reports 4. Class Information

You can have any sections you choose, but these have worked best for me. Continue reading for more explanation about each section.
A Daily Student Agenda
A Daily Student Agenda is KEY to keeping students organized, teaching life skills, and communicating with parents. At the end of each day, students write down important notes for the day and homework they are expected to complete that night. If I need to write a note home to a parent, this is where it goes. In addition, parents enjoy having a consistent place to reference notes and things that need to be completed.

This agenda section is also a great way to keep a record of student progress, behavior concerns, and homework completion. All notes are in one place if ever needed for data collecting.
Lots of Calendars
As adults, we use calendars all the time to keep track of our schedule. Using calendars in your student binders will teach students this life skill and the importance of looking/planning ahead. Also, I love adding important school dates and events to this calendar at the beginning of the school year.

A Place for Homework
It is ideal to keep homework all in one place. Homework is more likely to be completed and less likely to go missing. Having a homework section in your student binders gives students a simple way to keep all of their nightly homework together.

Progress Reports
I regularly send home student progress reports in order to keep parents informed throughout the school year. These reports update parents on recent grades, progress, and any behavior concerns I may have at the time. A copy of the progress reports is kept in each student binder for parents to reference as the quarter/semester progresses. At the end of each quarter, I remove the progress reports and file them in my student portfolios.

Data Tracking
Requiring students to keep track of their own progress can have many positive effects in your classroom. By having students graph and/or record their grades, they are gaining a better understanding of how they are actually doing in school. Students should not be surprised if their grade is low and are more likely to take ownership and work to improve their grades when they see them in a concrete format.

Other Important Papers
It is important to have a section that contains anything and everything you would like your students to keep in their student binder. Some of these papers may be to help the student organize themselves and some might contain important class policies or procedures. Some of the information I like to include is a class schedule, contact information form, homework expectations, school policies, etc.

Let Them Personalize it!
Students love to make things their own! Your student binders should be no exception. Give them the opportunity to draw pictures or color on their agenda pages, as long as it doesn’t interfere with the actual agenda. I love to use a “doodle” style agenda and let students color in the pictures each week as a fun activity. This is a great way to get students excited about their binders and they are more likely to take care of them throughout the school year.

Digital Planners are fun, too!
If you prefer to keep things clean, going 100% DIGITAL is a great option! I prefer to use Google Drive when using a digital planner because I can access it from anywhere!

School Binder with Printables

People in my life would maybe say that I’m an all or nothing kind of girl. Once I make up my mind, there’s no going back. Remember how I recently made a family binder and Post-it Note grids? Well that started an organizational kick. Finally. It only took 30 something years, but I am feeling the need to organize. Phew! Part of my organizing kick included this back to school binder.
![first grade homework binder Make Your Own School Binder with several free printables www.thirtyhandmadedays.com](https://www.thirtyhandmadedays.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/makeyourownschoolbinder.png)
In this school binder, there are several sections. The idea is to have one for each child so that all of their important things can be in their binder. This binder can carry on through the rest of the grades. Some of the sections are: homework, artwork, grades, and calendar. Sadly for her, Julia carries on her mom’s not-so-organized trait. One of the things I’m determined to teach her this year is to keep better track of things. To help with that, I made a calendar and punched holes to add it to her binder. She can pencil in all of her important assignments and things she needs to remember. I want her to start junior high next year as a much more organized and responsible student.
I’ve done all the hard work creating the sheets, you just have to click below! Grab a binder, some sheet protectors, dividers and school supplies at any store and get to it. Now is the time to do this when there are SO many deals for supplies. I found several posts on deal sites sharing school supply sales (ie this Back to School Stock Up Worthy post). In some cases you can get stuff for free. For free people!! And if I’m sharing these for free…..then the whole thing is free….and you really have no excuses. Right? Right. If I can tackle this project, anyone can.

Student Take Home Binders
I also include a monthly calendar for important dates, etc. You could also use the calendar for behavior! 🙂 I like to keep our class rules there too, so parents know exactly what is expected of their kiddo!
I also keep an important contact page so they can easily have all my information! Our specials schedule isn’t that nice and patterned, hahaha! But, I know some schools have it that way, so I figured I would include it just in case! I’ve also seen teachers chart their specials on a monthly calendar, so that would be super easy to do too!
I always include lots of curriculum help so that parents always have things to work on with their child!
‘Personally, when a hcild has mastered all of their sight words, I have the parents email me and I give them a new list. 🙂 I don’t test mine regularly, so parents help me with this!
I also put a folder in everyone’s binder! I teach them HOW to put papers in, haha. PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE!! Otherwise the folder will just be a place they shove things, haha! I know a lot of teachers stuff folders themselves…I like to teach mine, but it takes a LONG time. 🙂
You can find all these all these forms, labels, and a whole bunch of editable forms in my new product!

I really love how you set up your folders! Thanks for the great ideas. Where did you get those amazing green folders??
Paige- Office Depot!
How do you get your labels to stay on? I've tried them on poly folders and they seem to fall off.
Courtney- I've found the smooth plastic folders work the best! The ones that have a lot of texture stick, but the ends can peel up. Also, make sure you buy the GOOD labels! :) Hope that helps!
Is this ediatable enough to change to spanish? It's so unfortunate there aren't any spanish resources and I don't have time to create any...... :(
I have something very similar, however, this hits it right out the park! "GO" Ms. Liz!
Love this idea!! I will hopefully start teaching in September. I have already put this in my TPT cart to buy once I'm hired. Thank you!
I did the same for my 1st graders one year, but mine said, "to be LEFT at home," "to be sent RIGHT back." They were placed on the LEFT and RIGHT sides of the folder.

An In-Depth Look at the Binder System This Teacher Swears By
It’s like a living portfolio and interactive notebook all in one!
![first grade homework binder](https://www.weareteachers.com/wp-content/uploads/An-In-Depth-Look-at-the-Binder-System-This-Teacher-Swears-By.png)
Since sharing my interactive binder system for student organization, I’ve been getting DMs and emails asking more about it! I LOVE using interactive binders to keep my middle school students organized. Implementing this system has seriously cut down on lost student papers. Not to mention, binders have given me back time that used to be taken up by cutting and gluing in interactive notebooks. My current binder system is the result of several years of trial and error. I hope reading about it will help teachers (like you!) on their own journey to creating independent and organized students.
How do students set up the binders?
In my classroom, students store binders on a built-in shelving unit. Each class period has an assigned color and a shelf for their binders lined in coordinating duct tape. When setting up student binders, I have them place a piece of matching duct tape on the spine of their binder. This serves two purposes. First, it gives them a place to write their name. Second, color coding makes it easy for me to put away any stray binders. My last classroom did not have shelves, so we stored binders in milk crates. It worked, but the shelves are easier to keep tidy!
![IMG_2990 Empty, color coded shelves await this years binders.](https://www.weareteachers.com/wp-content/uploads/IMG_2990-800x600.jpg)
Inside the binders, students have a table of contents that should be their first page. In the system I used last year, each handout had a three-digit page number. The first digit was the number of the unit we were in, and the subsequent numbers were for the order of the pages (for example, in our second unit, the first three pages were 201, 202, and 203). Any pages that are not numbered handouts, like warm-up sheets or vocab trackers, are printed on a different-color sheet of paper. For example, all warm-up sheets are pink, and vocabulary trackers are in blue, which makes them easy for students to spot. I did not use tab dividers last year in an effort to simplify the process, but I plan to bring them back for the upcoming school year. I will keep the page numbers and colored paper, but have students separate non-numbered pages behind their own tab.
![first grade homework binder](https://www.weareteachers.com/wp-content/uploads/IMG_2992-800x600.jpg)
Are students able to take their binders home?
As you might have guessed from my duct tape system, binders live in the classroom! I find this seriously cuts down on the “I left it in my locker / at home / on the bus.” If students need to take their binders home to complete or revise an assignment, they understand that they are responsible for bringing it back the next day. Additionally, I train students on how to nondisruptively enter the room to borrow their binder for a study hall period, which further reduces the need to bring them home.
Do you grade the binders? How?
I actually don’t grade the binder as a whole! I do ask students to turn in specific pages for grades. On assessments, students must use the resources in their binder. An example might be “support your claim with data we collected on page 209,” or “include three words from your vocabulary tracker in your answer.” If their binders are not organized in a way that makes sense to them, they struggle to do this. For most students, this is the motivation they need to follow the suggested procedure for organizing their binder. However, one of my co-workers in eighth grade science does do binder checks for her students. She finds that they are more beneficial early in the year to build organizational skills. As the routines become habits, she does them less frequently.
Where do you get your student pages?
My coworkers and I design the layout for all the pages. The ones featured in the original interactive binder article are from a thermal energy unit that I no longer teach. The district I am currently in has adopted OpenSciEd as our middle school science curriculum. I love the concept of their sheets! My teaching partner and I collaborate to customize the organization and page layout to better meet the needs of our students, while preserving the integrity of the activity.
![first grade homework binder](https://www.weareteachers.com/wp-content/uploads/IMG_2993-768x1024.jpg)
I hope the answers to these questions help you on your own journey through the land of student organization, no matter what strategies you’re implementing!

How to organize a school binder: Tips and examples

By Katie Azevedo, M.Ed.
![first grade homework binder How to organize a school binder tips](https://43b5b8.p3cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/How-to-organize-a-school-binder-blog-image-1-1024x576.jpg)
There are multiple ways to organize school materials using binders, notebooks, folders, and accordion files. This guide will teach you how to organize a school binder. It also includes tips for students with ADHD. The binder set-up I teach below can work for middle school, high school and college students.
Tips for choosing a school binder
Staples, Amazon, and Target are full of school binder options: zipper, 3-ring, ones with pockets, ones with velcro. The rule is to choose a binder with the least friction. In other words, choose one that is easy to open, easy to close, and easy to add papers to.
More tips for choosing an academic binder:
- Choose a 3-ring binder only if you plan to use folders inside (more on that in the subsection titled how to set up your school binder below)
- Avoid 3-ring binders without using folders; otherwise, you’ll have to hole-punch all your papers.
- Choose a binder with a solid front and back cover. Avoid flimsy covers.
- Velcro-close binders are a good choice if you often carelessly throw things in your backpack. Velcro can keep the covers from getting jammed.
- Avoid zipper binders if you feel rushed at the end of class. Zippers are friction.
What size school binder to get
Three-ring binders come in many sizes, from .5 inch to 6 inches. (That’s huge; don’t get that one.) Purchase the smallest size possible that fits all your subjects without jamming your papers on the rings.
First, think about how many courses you will use your binder for. For one class, a 1-inch binder is usually enough. If you will use your binder for five classes, then you might need a 3 or 4-inch binder.
![first grade homework binder school binder organization tips](https://43b5b8.p3cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/2-1-1-1024x576.png)
Second, think about what you will put inside your binder. I talk about different binder sections and materials further down in this blog post. Things to consider: will you be adding folders? A pencil pouch? Notebooks or loose-leaf paper? The more you add, the larger the binder needs to be.
Other school binder materials you may need
In addition to the actual binder, you will likely need a few other items to keep your school binder organized:
- Tabbed dividers
- Pencil pouch (optional)
- Slim 3-hole punch
- Loose-leaf paper (lined, graphed)
- Notebooks with 3-hole punches
- If you have ADHD, consider these tips for choosing school supplies
How to organize your school binder: Setting up the sections
The front section.
If you are keeping a pencil punch in your binder, it goes in the front. The first section of your binder is also where you clip in your slim 3-hole punch. We don’t put these in the back, because they create bumpy writing surfaces. The last item to go in the front section is a copy of your schedule. You can use a sheet protector like this one . (Another option is to slip your schedule inside the plastic pocket on the outside cover of your binder if it comes with one.)
The middle section
If you’re using your school binder for multiple classes, you need a section for each class. Use tabbed dividers to separate these sections. Label the tabs with your class names.
For each class section, you will need a folder and paper. Unless you plan to hole-punch all your papers (really?), use the folder for handouts and worksheets. For paper, you can use loose-leaf or a 3-hole-punched single-subject notebook. Up to you.
- The first item to add in each section, right up front, is frequently used reference materials. This would include a periodic table for chemistry class, a formula reference sheet for math, etc. Slip these in sheet covers, or hole punch them.
- Next, add your syllabus if you have one. If it’s only available online, print it out.
- Next, add your loose-leaf paper or notebook. If using loose-leaf paper, start with 20 sheets or so. You can always add more.
- Lastly, add your class-specific folder.
Here is an outlined recap of the items that go in each class section. I list them in the order I suggest you add them to your binder.
- Tabbed divider with the class name written on the tab
- Reference materials stored in a sheet protector
- Loose-leaf paper or notebook
The last section
The last section of your school binder, behind each of your divided class sections, is a separate section for papers that aren’t for any specific class. This would include permission slips, forms for extracurriculars, password lists, etc. Use another labeled tabbed divider for this section. You may also want to add a folder so that you don’t have to hole-punch everything you add here.
Tips to keep your school binder organized
Knowing how to organize your school binder and set it up in a friction-free way is the first step. Follow the tips above to create a binder that’s easy to use and add to. The second step is to keep your binder organized throughout the school year.
To keep your papers and materials organized, be sure to go through each class section regularly (weekly or monthly) to:
- throw away old papers
- move out-of-place materials to the correct spot
- remove unit notes and papers that you no longer need (clip them together and take them out of your binder until you need them for a final)
- empty the front pocket of whatever papers you crammed in there
- add new loose leaf paper to empty sections when necessary
Other tips for keeping your binder organized:
- If your teacher gave you any materials digitally and you’d prefer them on paper, print them out and store them in your binder.
- You can use the inside front-cover pocket to store homework that needs to be submitted the next day. But, don’t leave worksheets in this pocket for more than a day or two.
- If your school binder falls apart or breaks during the year, get a new one.
How to organize a school binder if you have ADHD
Students with ADHD and executive dysfunction often need more support to get and stay organized. Managing school materials, keeping papers neat, remembering to turn in paper-based homework, and storing class worksheets/notes in the right sections are all challenges for people with ADHD.
![first grade homework binder school binder organization with ADHD no zippers](https://43b5b8.p3cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/1-1-1024x576.jpg)
In addition to the tips above – which are also written with ADHD in mind – you might consider the following tips for organizing a binder for school:
- Avoid zippered binders entirely.
- Choose an open binder (no clasp) or one with easy-open velcro.
- Use one large binder for all classes.
- Add a special section in the front for homework. This can be the first section in the binder before the class-specific sections. Add a folder to this section.
- Use a Sunday Routine to go through the binder and organize papers, tidy the sections, throw away junk papers, and check for homework that hasn’t been turned in.
- Use color-coded tab dividers. Match your folder color to the tab color for each class. (Blue tab for English; blue folder for English.)
- Choose the right lined paper for your handwriting. You may need wide-ruled lines if your handwriting is large.
- Use graph paper for all math work.
- Store your assignment notebook inside the binder, near the very front. You can purchase an assignment notebook with 3 holes.

40+ Binder Covers Printables
September 11, 2023
- Facebook 32
- Pinterest 2483
I don’t know about you, but I LOVE color. When I look around at other printable school binder covers online, they always seem to be black and white, basic, muted/light color tones. A few have bright, bold colors, but not many.
While I can appreciate those kinds of softer dividers for binders, they just don’t work for me.
I want to live life to the fullest. I want to be HAPPY, excited, JOYFUL. I want my KIDS to be happy, on fire, excited, joyful too as they use these cute binder dividers. Because it makes all the difference in the world whether or not your kids have a good day at school or not, if they are surrounded by happy colors!
That was my intent with these printable 40+ binder covers and dividers !
I also tried to create every subject imaginable for these professional binder cover templates; that’s why there’s so many. 🙂
Included school subjects / topics in these cute binder covers are:
- Blank sheet to write in
- Language Arts
- Math binder covers
- Sign Language
- Social Studies
- Months to include: January
I hope you like them and I hope you share them with your family. I love them so much, I almost wish I was back in school, just so I can use them!
There’s also a blank printable binder cover in there, in the off chance that I missed a school subject. There’s plenty to chose from and they are perfect for:
You could even use the blank cover for your household or life binder and the dividers as ideas for your daily planner binder!
There’s literally so many options. If you use them as dividers, I just print them on thicker printer paper and stick these colorful Avery tabs on mine and they work PERFECTLY. Custom made page dividers for school or home!

That website has everything you would possibly need. I've changed my binder somewhat over the past half decade, but I think it works out just fine for my purposes.
