Toy Jail

This is our daughter's Toy Jail. (My husband made it!) Anything she leaves laying around for too long without cleaning up gets put in the jail. If she wants it out, she has to pick a chore card and complete the chore to release the toy. It works great so far! We just started it last week. She actually likes to do some of the chores. This morning she did more than she had to because she was having fun! lol
The chore cards are: help load/unload the dishwasher, help clean the bathroom, vacuum/ sweep, help with laundry, pull weeds, and a get out free card.

Fab Four

These are for the Fab Four...I couldn't find a Penguin or a Snake so I changed two of the animals.
Predicting Penguin, Clarifying Cow, Questiong Queen Bee, Summarizing Seal. They are so cute! I got them at a place called Under Five that recently opened in Winston-Salem. I saw them online but didn't know where to look as far as stores go. I came across these by accident today. It was pouring down rain when we came out of Michaels. I didn't want to go out in it to the truck. The umbrellas were in the truck. So we ran to the store next door to look around and to buy an umbrella. My daughter found these and by the time we were done in the store we didn't need the umbrella anymore! :)

Where are you?

I saw this on Pinterest. It is a great way to know where your students are when they leave the room. With so many places to be and different kids in and out and can be a lot to keep up with. Our school does interventions and it was hard to keep track of who went on which days. This will make it easier!

The students numbers are on magnets on the top. All I have to do is add my titles to this. I want to put: speech, interventions, office, bathroom, (and I am still thinking on the last two). Keep this near the door. :)

Summer's coming to an end

Only 13 more days until back to work! This summer sure went fast! I will take pictures of my classroom and add some ideas to my blog when I visit again. Hope everyone has enjoyed thier summers and are getting ready to go back. I still have much to do!
