How To Make A Folder In Windows

To keep things organized on your computer, create folders for different documents, files and/or subjects. Once your documents are well organized on the computer this will make it easier to find items and setup scheduled tasks like backing up your data. 1. On the desktop (main screen), right click the My Computer icon. 2. Select Explore from the list that appears. The screen will change, exposing a window with two panes. On the left is a list of all your drives and on the right is a list of the drives sorted in categories.

3. To keep things simple we are going to create a folder in My Documents. Click My Documents. The screen changes. The left side of the window lists all the folders already in the My Documents folder. On the right is a list of the existing folders in My Documents. 4. Right click in any empty space in the right pane.

5. Select New from the list and it will expand. Select Folder from the new list. A new folder is created at the bottom of the list of files and folders with the name New Folder. It will be highlighted if you haven’t moved the mouse. 6. Type in a name for the folder. 7. Hit Enter key and the folder will have the new name you typed.

That’s it. You are done. You will notice that the folder you just made is at the bottom of the list of files and folders. To sort the list in alphabetical order (folders automatically are listed first) right click in any blank area in the right pane and select Refresh. The screen will blink and the files and folders will be sorted in alphabetical order. You don’t have to only create folders in My Documents. You can create them anywhere.

So now that you know how to make a folder in Windows, get those files organized! It will save you time searching for files.

I love that they are responsible for filling it in. The behavior charts stay tucked in the front pocket of my student's take-home folder (actually it's a binder) with this little reminder to the parents not to take it out. I keep extra monthly behavior charts in a plastic sleeve behind the weekly tracking pages. Just in case a behavior chart does go missing.

I also keep my original of the weekly tracking page and extra stickers in the next plastic sleeve. I hate having to get up and go find something when I'm in the middle of a task. I want everything within reach. So I keep everything I need, right inside my binder.

I wanted to reward my kids who earned the right to move their clip up to blue, pink, or purple. So I created these cute little behavior charts and let my students pick which color chart they wanted. While the students are coloring their behavior charts, I put stickers on their charts. When a student fills their chart, there are 30 boxes, I will them pick out a treat from the treasure box and they get a new sticker chart.

I love that no one, except me, can really tell which students are the best behaved. A parent coming in would never be able to tell whether a student has only a few stickers because they have trouble behaving or if they just started a new sticker chart. As you can tell I've had some nosy parents in the past, so I work hard to try to ensure each student's privacy when it comes to their behavior at school.

I tell my parents at the beginning of the year that their child's behavior is no ones business except mine, theirs, and the child's. My sticker management chart and behavior binder fit nicely into this tub from Big Lots, and the crayons stay right in front. This little shelf is between my bathrooms and right behind my reading table. Like I said, I want everything within reach. This behavior management binder is available on my TpT store in both editable and non-editable versions. The editable version can be modified to go with any clip chart system.
