The Clutter-Free Classroom is having a linky party asking to see your teacher bag! I absolutely adore my teacher bag. It is per-fect!
It is a Thirty-One Organizing Utility Tote. I love all of the pockets it has (7 total pockets) and it holds a LOT on the inside. My favorite part is the reinforced grommets on the straps so that I don’t have to worry about it being too heavy!
The only thing I *might* change about my bag is the pattern. I ordered it last year and there wasn’t a pattern I just LOVED. If I were to order right now though, I would totally order the Awesome Blossom or Black Parisian Pop.
Alright… and now I dare to show the contents of my bag.
Laminating pockets for my at home laminator, lesson plan book, calendar, and RTI calendar, index cards, popcorn from our K-Kids group at school, a Valentine sucker, an enormous amount of pens, pencils, and markers, tape, glue, ruler, 3 different notepads, and a mound of papers I have been avoiding grading.
Whew! And there was still plenty of room to spare in there :)
Love my bag!
Ilove your bag! I don't have a regular bag that I use. I just throw things into reusuable grocery bags! Now, I'm motivated to go buy myself something like yours! HOpefully I can post and link up too.
Man, the organizing utility totes are sweeping the teacher blog nation!!! I have the same one as you and I love it too! My old bag's straps broke because it was too heavy, and I am super happy that I don't have to worry about that anymore. :)
Marvelous Multiagers!
A student gave me this exact bag for Christmas, what a great gift! I love it!
That bag looks amazingly large and sturdy. Looks like it gets the job done!
I used to sell Thirty-One and this was one of my favorite bags!!
Just bought myself 2 of the 31 bags – so excited, as I received one this week! My old bag did not have as much space & I am so thrilled to be able to fit a binder in this one, without it pinching my arm when I put the straps on my shoulder! It didn't look like you have too much clutter in your bag!! Thanks for sharing!!

I have the same bag, same design and I just gave it a make over.
