I'm thinking of spraypainting it and putting scrapbook paper on the shelves.

I will put their graded papers in there myself, since I don't want anyone else to see their grades but then I have mailboxes as a classroom job. Those students get to stuff the mailboxes with the many papers that the office gives us to send home. I also have my less organized students place their homework in their mailbox throughout the day as they receive it to increase the chances of it making it home with them at the end of the day. I have my mailboxes placed by my door so that each student grabs their mail each day on their way out. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I taught third grade during my first year of teaching, so I am happy to help in any way!

I taught second grade last year and am moving to third next year. I used book covers as chair pockets and a friend will be giving me her mailboxes to use next year. Is it for extra storage, or papers to take home? Thanks for your help.
