ABC Order - All in how you look at it:)

I was grading homework folders today and saw how this one little Kinder put her words in ABC order. This is great.....not what I intended; however, totally correct and acceptable for me:)

Small Group Organization

I've finally got my small groups all squared away and drawers labeled for their daily materials. I feel so much better organized!

Mystery Walker - Classroom Management

This is the first year I have done a "mystery walker" and wow! I love it and so do the students! All of my students have a number, so I just put numbers on my chips. Anyway, as you're lining up for transitions out of the room, you grab a number (after I give my box a shake to catch their attention lol) and stick it in your pocket. No one knows (except you) who the "mystery walker" is so everyone must be doing their best job to "win". If the student drawn did excellent in the hallway and line, then they receive some reward. In my class, they get to move their number up on the behavior clip-chart.

Reindeer Fun

Today my class started our study on reindeer. I started with a concept map and took in all of what they already "know" about reindeer. Let me tell ya...fun times. Most were about how they all fly and land on rooftops, etc..... One student said "they have things on the bottom of their feet". Another raise her hand and said "I know, they're called horseshoes". Another said, "No, they're reindeer shoes". Finally, one of my quietest little girls raised her hand and said, "Mrs. Aguilar what I think they're trying to say is HOOVES"!  I made a reindeer write the room that has been fun too. Want it free?? OK!! Also, check our my store before Cyber Monday is over!!!! Good sale going on!
