The pockets on this organizer hold regular sized paper (8.5 x 11) okay. If you want to use folders, you'll have to cut them down quite a bit. The picture shows what appear to be folders in the pockets, so you'd think regular pocket folders would fit, but they don't. The description says the pockets are 9" wide x 8.5" tall. They got the height right, but the width of 9" is including the stitching/seams, so they will not accomodate papers/folders over 8.5" wide. Also, several of the seams on the pockets began to come apart at the top after about a month. This is a useful organizer, but the pockets need to be wider.

This pocket chart is the best organizer for the busy teacher who needs everything at their fingertips. I bought a second pocket chart and have them hanging back-to-back. One side is use as student mailboxes to separate their papers at a glance. Turn the chart stand around (mine is on wheels) and I have their xerox papers, notes, forms, reports and records at a glance. This is also great for any substitute to find any work because the pockets are clearly marked with their subject and work. It only takes a chart stand to hold these charts. Best investment for veteran and novice teachers alike.

I bought this at a teacher supply store a week ago and I love it! I keep mine at home and have it hung on the wall in my office. I have 2 daughters who like to read, write and color so I have put their names in the slots and have given each of them a row to place their favorite stuff. It keeps their books and papers up off of my floor and they like having an area of my office to call their own. Even though I am not a teacher yet I am very happy to have found this pocket chart and plan to buy another for my future classroom. This can also come in handy for those classrooms who have limited cubby or file space.

I teach elementary school and use this pocket chart as a visual reminder for makeup work and/or missed tests. I team teach with another teacher, so I actually have two of these - one for my class and one for the other. Each student is assigned his/her own pocket, and when they see papers in their pocket they ask about them. This tool keeps papers off of the black hole that is my desk.

As a teacher, keeping things simple is key to efficiently using my valuable time. This is a wonderful tool for managing our homework, morning check in, and does so with a quick visual check. In fact, it's invaluable!

This station arrives with plastic coated, easy to use labels that fit neatly into the clear pouch. Pockets are deep enough for full sheets without being so deep that 1/2 sheets get lost. Five "hangy holes" (yes, it's a technical term) allow for full support which is critical when 27 students are turning in an entire unit of work!

Buy it, use it, and you will be happy. I've added clothes pins to mine. One side is red (hot lunch), the other blue (cold), and in an instant attendance and hot lunch count is done! Now, if only I could purchase an additional column for my class as it GROWS.

I was very excited when i found a pocket chart with enough slots for all 17 students in my preschool class but was very disappointed when it came. I bought it as a place for my students to put their take home folders everyday. Do not be fooled by the picture, folders can not fit in the pockets... I am very disappointed and will be sending it back.

I use this as mailboxes for my students in class. It is ripping a little at some of the seams, but I have had it for a couple of years.

I teach kindergarten and wanted something for each student to keep their morning literacy folder and printable books in. This is perfect. The pockets are not too deep for the small kinder books and has a place to put names. I could also use this for my 4x5 writing journals. It is just what I wanted!

As a fourth grade teacher I love this organization station, I use it to pass back my students graded papers. All I have to do is put their papers in the assigned pocket and they grab it on their way out the door. The pockets are big enough most papers, some of the smaller things being sent home do fall to the bottom but that ok to me! Great classroom tool!
