How I Organize My Task Cards

One thing that I would like to implement more of this coming school year is task cards. I've started making some of my own, but have also gotten several from all the wonderful sellers on TpT.

I saw several people using accordion files, but I pinned THIS blog post from Teaching with Task Cards when I decided that was the route I wanted to go.

I searched for several days to find just the right container to hold the accordion files. I went back and forth with several different ideas, but finally settled on these scrapbook containers.

I got 2 of these containers at Michaels for $11.99 - 44% off - 15% off = $5.70 each. Everything else that I liked was much more expensive and took up a lot more space.

I had originally wanted to use different colors for different subjects, but I couldn't find enough in each color.  Most of these are from Target's Dollar Spot. The ones with the black elastic are from Dollar Tree. The base of these are just a tad bigger than the Target files. I'm going to print out labels on the little address labels (the ones that fit about 80 to a sheet) and put the topic on the files.

I got some of the large accordion files to hold the answer sheets for the task cards. There is enough room on top of the smaller accordion files to fit probably 5-6 of the larger ones on top.
