Free Printable Classroom Labels
Free printable classroom labels for shelves, bins, cubbies and supplies. Editable templates. Instant PDF download, no signup.
Classroom organisation has a weird relationship with printing. A well-labelled classroom runs itself; kids know where the crayons live, the reading corner has clear categories, the shelves don't descend into chaos by Friday. But the label printing itself usually lands on the teacher at 9pm during the holiday before term starts, with no budget and a hungry printer.
This printable is the free version of what teachers usually pay £10 to £20 for on Teachers Pay Teachers. It has label sheets in three sizes (small shelf labels, medium bin labels, large area labels), with and without picture icons, in several fonts. Pages include pre-made labels for common classroom categories (art supplies, maths, reading, worksheets, lost and found) plus blank templates for custom items.
Print on sticker paper for the easiest application, or on regular paper and attach with tape or laminating pouches. Pair with our alphabet worksheets if you're teaching labelling as a literacy activity — kids love labelling things around the classroom themselves once they see the finished version. Everything free.
