Gather your child's current kept school papers to organize into piles of those you wish to store and organize and those you are going to throw away. Although it may seem difficult parting with any of your child's schoolwork, over time it may be too much to store, causing clutter. Keep high test scores, essays and presentations to organize for safe keeping.
Organize your child's graded school papers each day after class to help eliminate feeling overwhelmed or confused on what work to save. Browse through your child's graded papers each day and save one or two pieces of work, depending on your preferences when storing.
Create a binder or a folder to keep your child's school papers in. Dedicate the folders and binders to specific subjects, or divide the subjects within one binder or folder alternatively. Each day, add the graded school papers you have chosen from your child's homework and returned papers to the binder or folder you created. Design the binder to relate to your child's class year or specific hobbies and interests of hers in that time frame -- such as decorating the outside with sports-themed designs, nature, or artists and musicians.
Design a new binder or folder each year, semester, or month to fit your memory-saving and sharing techniques. Label the storage binder for each year to keep track and better organize your child's schoolwork throughout future years.
