I am sitting here still in pj's (1:30pm), listening to music, finishing some units, and starting new ones. I love it!!! I am also loving my Erin Condren life planner is in the "printed" stage and my Vera Bradley totes were shipped today!I think my cat is enjoying it too...what do you think? He is just too adorable...I think I need a nap too!
Other things I'm loving on this rainy lazy productive day...my lunch:) I found this Pizza Quesadillas recipe on Pinterest and wanted to try it! It was really good:)
I am pretty excited to be trying this new ice cream I just had to have! As many of you know, I have an obsession with Starbucks...and when you put Starbucks and ice cream together I am in love! I finally found this ice cream! It looks delish!
So what was so productive thus far in my day??? Well, the house is vacuumed:) That's a start right? Oh, also some units are done! Here they are!
1. DeBug system
Do you have tattlers in your class??? If you don't, I want to come teach with YOU! Tattling is one of my biggest pet peeves. I am always saying, "are you hurt? are you bleeding" and if they answer no, then I usually stop listening. Depends on the situation. Well, this poster I found on Pinterest from Mrs. Richardson's Class was super cute. It is a 5 step system of how to handle tattling. Here is the poster I made for my class. I am going to have it hanging up this year:)

I am not sure about you, but I have done this for 3 years now and LOVE it:) I just wanted a new poster for my class...so here you go! Another freebie:)

Thanks Lisa:)
DeleteWow, you've gotten quite a bit done for a lazy, rainy day! :) Thanks for the giveaway opportunity!
ReplyDeleteI'm trying:) Left overs for dinner, hubby not home until 7ish...house is pretty clean...could use some more tlc but not right now! I may go start 50 Shades!
DeleteThis look great! Since I'm going to be a first year teacher, I'm starting to panic a bit about classroom management so I would love any ideas or techniques!

Thanks:) That was my whole purpose of this! I didn't want to take anything away, I always want to give and be positive. I am really hoping this works. I just finished my rewards for leveling up! I think it's a good order:)But I didn't add them in the packet because everyone does rewards differently. I did include blank cards though!
DeleteGreat idea! I am jealous though you have been way more productive than I have been this summer :O)
ReplyDeleteThis looks soooo positive!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see how it goes for you!

What an awesome packet! I couldn't wait to see it and now I love it! Thanks for posting it ... I hope it works for me this year!
ReplyDeleteNow if only I could have your motivation to work on school stuff!
Oh thanks! I am probably going to regret it in a month when it is time to go back. I am just trying to be a bit more prepared this year! So far so good:)
DeleteThis sounds like a great idea. Now I'm torn between my clip chart and this idea!

I know right! I think the clip chart is a good idea, I personally don't like the clipping down! If I was to do it, I like it a bit more personalized as where not everyone can see it. That's why I really like this one, everyone wants to see the positive moves kids are making...it encourages others to want to do well!
DeleteI can't wait to read more about the Leveling Up idea. I really like the personalize attention and how every child has the chance to succeed at their own pace.
ReplyDeleteI love this idea. I've been using a fluid clip chart where the kids can move both up and down throughout the day for about 10 years or so. This looks like a fun alternative and I like the chance that they are all moving up!

Hi Tonya...I am your newest follower. Thank you for sharing the Debug poster. That is a necessity in any primary classroom LOL. I also love your Leveling Up idea.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great system! Thanks for sharing with us!

I like this idea so much better than flipping cards. I feel like even the students tend to flip their cards all the time would be able to receive an award with this system. I would like to try it this year too.
