Trello saved my teacher desk from endless piles of paper and my computer from a frame of sticky notes.

Here are 10 ways that Trello, a digital organization for teachers, saved my desk and my teacher life.

BEFORE TRELLO

It’s FREE!
You can create a free account that can be used on the web or linked to all devices with an app. You can have up to 10 free Trello boards that can be used to digital plan and organize your teacher life.

Share and Collaborate
When using Trello lesson planning you will be able to share your pacing calendar with other likeminded teachers and work smarter instead of harder.

No HASSLE Small Group Organization
Trello templates for teachers are a great way to get your small groups organized, you will never again have to retype your small group list because you moved a few students around. You can drag and drop students around from one group to another and if you need to take notes on a child for an IEP referral you are able to do that within the app.

All Needed Files Are Just a Click Away
Link files for referrals, activities and fliers from your computer or cloud storage to cards for easy access. Never again will you forget where a file is.

Label and Color Code Cards
Label and color code information in planning cards so that information can be identified at a glance.

Important Dates to Remember
Add important dates to your yearly lesson planning template cards and put a due date on it so that you have all due dates in one place along with your lesson plans.

Never Forget Lesson at Home
There is no worse feeling than realizing you left your lesson on the kitchen counter and don’t have time to go back and get them. NEVER AGAIN! You can access all of your planning boards from any device.

No More Scrambling for Notes
You can take all observation notes in a Trello teacher template for small groups. When it’s time for a referral you will have everything right there in one place. No more running back to your classroom for those needed notes for an IEP meeting.
