I absolutely adore Mountain Ocarinas! Their ocarinas are beautiful, affordable, and come with a lifetime breakage guarantee... plus their self-teaching curriculum is wonderfully put together so that the budding musician can be successful right away. The tone is gorgeous and the fingering intuitive. Check them out on You Tube for more examples. |

A handy solution for distractible students? The study carrel! They're easy to make out of simple cardboard, however I'm thinking of attaching a few mini bulletin- or white-boards together for next year... |

One of the two simple solutions that rescued my school area from total chaos was the use of wall files. They're not expensive and basically shift your piles to a vertical, as opposed to horizontal, format. These make ideal "In" boxes and "To Do" piles. |

The second awesome organizational tool I've fallen in love with is book racks! They're also called binder racks. Either way, they allow you to stand a line of school books up on your counter or shelf... and then pull one out without causing an avalanche. |

Have you ever dropped a Mentos into two liters of Diet Coke? How about 523 Mentos into 202 liters of Coke?!? This You Tube classic is beautifully choreographed and tastefully set to music... you'll never look at fluid dynamics the same way again! Eepy Bird sells a variety of kits for independent experimentation. |

I know that you've probably shopped at Staples before. They now have an entire aisle devoted to Post It products... add a Mix-n-Match office supply buffet (less fattening than a candy store) and you have an organizer's extravaganza! |
