file folder games

[ske]

I am looking for a better way to store and file my file folder games for reading and math. I have used magazine files, but the dust collects so quickly. I prefer not to use giant tubs. I am trying to avoid too much clutter. Does anyone have a great idea? Thanks!

One thing you might try is the large, plastic, closed containers that hold handing files. The typically have handles on the top, so they are easy to move. Due to the fact they have a lid, you could eliminate the dust problem. (At officedepot.com they are referred to as Carrying File Cases.)

In the past, I have stored various math games in the hanging files...students knew they could go back to the container and pick an activity when they were done. You could simply label the hanging files with the names of your folder games.

Hope this helps!
