I must be in an organization mood because I wanted to write another strategy that I use to keep my classroom organized: file folders!
I discovered early on that the simpler you keep things, the better. I labeled folders for every class period (and would place them in separate parts of the room to prevent students from turning in papers to the wrong class). I have never separated late work, missing work, and on-time work. I'm a bit too type A for my grading not to get done as soon as possible.

1. I rarely was accused of losing papers because students placed it in the folder and I would grade them from the folder. (When things were done being graded, I had magazine holders for each class period to pass back at the beginning of the next class period.)
2. Students had an easy place to turn papers in.
3. Students were given a little more privacy on what they handed in versus a bin.
4. I could take the folder home and protect the papers. Just snap a binder clip on it and it's ready to go!
