Joining a Link party:
I teach in TEXAS!!!
East of the "weird" place for those of you local. (Austin for those of you not)
I teach MIDDLE school and for an elementary teacher for 17 years, that is scary. When I meet people and they find out I teach sixth graders the response is always, "Oh wow! I could never.... " That was me.
Well, never say never people.
I am starting my second year and I am actually excited and looking forward to it.
My room is not 100%, but I have done more since I last posted pics.
I know this isn't many pictures, but click
here and see more from my previous post.
Swat Game:
So how many of you have seen this on Pinterest?
I loved the idea of kids getting up and "swatting" the correct idea. I have been brainstorming ideas how to incorporate this right away.
So, here's my generic version. Cute cutouts, laminated and I can add whatever skill I need. Our first may be prime and composite numbers.
The Vocabulary Smack is the same, but obviously for vocabulary. I teach ESL students and vocab is HUGE!!! So, I figured I can add words or definitions and we can play the game the same way. Plus I found these cute cut outs for less than a dollar at Wal-Mart and couldn't pass them up!
Enjoy!
