First things first, get yourself a digital calendar for your classroom organization

You can use tools like Google Calendar to keep track of everything from holidays to exams. Plus, you can easily access it from any device, so you’ll never forget an important event. If you’re a pen and paper kind of teacher, that’s fine! This can be a great supplement to your current system. 

Another thing to try is creating a digital gradebook. 

This can be a lifesaver when it comes to managing grades, tracking student progress, and sharing grades with parents. You can use tools like Google Sheets or specialized gradebook software to make it super easy.

Have you heard of digital classroom management systems? 

These systems can help you manage your classroom digitally, from attendance to lesson plans to student communication. Some popular options include Canvas and Schoology. They can really streamline your classroom processes and make things run more smoothly.

Digital note-taking is another cool option to consider. 

You can use tools like Evernote or Google Keep to keep your notes organized, collaborate with other teachers, and share information with students.

Finally, don’t forget about organizing your digital files! 

Use a file management system like Google Drive or Dropbox to keep everything in one place. You can even create folders for each subject or topic, which makes finding what you need a breeze.
