Choir Folders

Every teacher has his or her own preferences regarding choir folders.  I prefer plain old black binders.  I get the ones that have a clear plastic outer sleeve so that when Laura feels a moral imperative to write Laura Loves Sean and Laura and Sean Forever all over everything she owns, embellished with the cutest little hearts and eighth notes, she can render her artistic musings on a plain piece of paper and slip it inside the sleeve without defacing the choir folder that we must use for performance.

The use of a binder is also quite helpful in assisting your students with their organization of other handouts, i.e. theory worksheets, calendar items, rehearsal schedules, and such.  Which leads us to what goes into choir folders.
