Darn It's Friday . . .Said No Teacher Ever!

It's FRIDAY!!!!!!

And it's a three day weeeknd, extra bonus!

We spent our day doing every teacher's favorite thing. . . backwards planning :) We made copies, finished planning up until November, created posters for our writing unit, made math username/ password cards and had a lunch that was a bit longer than 45 minutes. Holla! See how hard we are working . . . .

 (and no, that is not our classroom, lol . . .pictures to come of those fancy rooms later!)


Today we are starting our "Fun Tip Friday'. We would like to share some sort of easy teaching tip to help you throughout your school year. Today we will share with you POWER PELLETS (found from the blog "what the teacher wants"). You take any kind of plastic container (with a lid) and fill it with power pellets (aka, Skittles). Explain to your class that when they hear the words "Power Position" they stop what they are doing, fold their hands and sit or stand quietly. Students that do this quickly will earn a power pellet! So simple! This works wonders in our rooms!!! Give it a try :)
