Making a Mini Office
This post may contain affiliate links.
Here are some ideas of things to put on your mini offices for younger kids:
Math facts
Hundred chart
Spelling words
Sight words
Cursive writing chart
Books in the Bible
Telling Time
Shapes
Money
Days of Week, Months of year
Math Symbols
Solar System
Parts of Speech
Punctuation
Presidents of U.S.
Foreign language terms
States & Capitals
Roman Numerals
Fractions
Left/Right hands
Colors
You can do this for your older kids, too… it isn’t just limited to elementary learners!
Here is how you make a mini office:
You will need at least 2-3 file folders. 2 folders will make a 3-panel mini office and 3 folders will make one with 4 panels. Lay them together overlapping the flaps and glue them together. On my mini office with 3 folders, I cut off the tabs on the folders in the middle. Some of the links below have detailed images with instructions if it doesn’t quite make sense.
Where I got my printable images for my mini office:
ABC Teach has lots of great ones in all subject areas
Busy Teacher’s Cafe also has a great selection
K-2 Printables
Lapbook Lessons
Teaching Hearts
Homeschool Creations
Squidoo
We made a taller version of this with an Elmer’s tri-fold board and it does help my son focus by decreasing distractions.
What a good idea! Might see if I can make something like this for my daughter.
This is such a great idea! I know IEW has one for their writing course, but a general one would be perfect for my kids. Thanks for sharing the links, it makes it so much easier to actually get it done.
How handy! Thanks for sharing this at the Sunday Showcase. I’ve pinned it to our feature board. 🙂
OK this may be my project for tomorrow. I have quite a few of those stickers from the Dollar Tree and I have been wondering how to use them.
That is a cute idea. Thank you.
Awesome idea, what information do you think I can used to create one for my 4th grader?
