DIY Portable Homework Station Using a Binder
We are busy getting ready for back to school. My oldest starts middle school this year. There will be quite a few changes, one of which will be homework from multiple teachers.
I would like to make keeping it all organized a little easier on him in the beginning. After a pretty through Pinterest search, I realized that I would need to come up with my own system
We need a portable homework station that doesn’t take up too much space.
In the end, a homework binder seemed like the best idea.

Building a Portable Homework Station Binder
The best part about this system is how flexible it is. I’m starting out with things that we’ll probably need, but I know adding or taking away items will be easy.

- A 1 1/2″ binder
is the perfect size for this project. Small enough to be carried around comfortably and big enough to hold all of the homework goodies!
- A few clear zipper binder pockets
. I bought two extras, that way I can add to the homework binder easily if I need to.

- Checklists make it easy to follow a new routine. Use this with reminders of everything that needs to be done while they are at the homework table. We slid ours into a page protectors to make it reusable.

The best part is this system will be easy to modify as we go!
How does homework go at your house? I would love any tips you can share.
