    For me, a way to show PowerPoint presentations and other web or cdrom stuff to
    kids is my number one. I use a big 31-inch Sharp TV with a scan converter that
    hooks onto my laptop. It has opened up all the images on the web to my kids.
    The converter only costs $150, but you need a TV or monitor with an S-video
    port. I like it better than displays because the image is sharper, AND you can
    capture onto video tape.

    My other mainstay is considerably less technical... Dozens of clear plastic boxes
    in all sizes. It keeps all my stuff together. I want to make paper, I go get
    the box. Every special activity has its own box. I keep staples like paints,
    paper, etc. in drawers. I also use one big box with each table, and it has all
    the necessary materials for general activities. Beats passing the stuff out. I
    make one student per table in charge of checking the materials daily.
