Mozzarella, Muenster, Colby...
Slices of cheese, grated cheese, cheese sticks....
...and Ricotta.
Lots of Ricotta cheese.
I never know what to do with the leftover containers.
Usually we just toss them in the recycling bin.
Until today.
As I walked them out to the garage I had an idea.
These containers are the perfect size for storing all sorts of items.
In fact, I pay top dollar for containers like these in the stores.
So, I borrowed some of my husband's spray paint and painted them.
I created a few labels and taped them on.
I might hot glue them tomorrow. The corners are peeling up a little and a dab of hot glue under each corner should do the trick.
Want a copy of these labels? Download them here. Just make sure to download the fonts so that you can view the labels correctly. They were created in Power Point so that you can edit the text.

Great idea with the crayon container. I bet your daughter will love to put in and out her crayons! I would use the pens as special incentives for the ELLs to write more!
