For example, I would say “great job so far, could you try bumping your writing up to a 4?”. They would go over to our bump it up wall and see what they could add to their writing. I will switch these out as the year progresses and expectations grow. Is this something you’d like to see on TPT? Thank you @kinder.smiles for the

Andriana | Classroom Community on Instagram: "I hope by now you are fully in summer mode, reading a good book that has nothing to do with teaching 📖 ☀️   But I wonder... has this happened to you? 👇 You’re in the middle of enjoying your long awaited break and that little voice in the back of your mind comes back, whispering...    💭 What do I need to be doing to start planning for back to school?!   “Next year” might already be echoing through your thoughts, even as you try to unplug.     I’ve SO been there. As educators who care deeply about our work, it’s hard to turn our teacher brains off during the summer.   I know getting ready for a new school year can feel overwhelming (and make it nearly impossible to relax during your well-deserved break).   🙌 That’s why I’ve done some of t

Liz ⋒ First Grade Teacher on Instagram: "Managing smart spots📍 I love having a lot of flex seating options in my classroom. I felt like I was missing opportunities for all learners to take advantage of the resources throughout the day. I saw how @mrsmunchsmunchkins managed her system, & it inspired me to create these choice menus. Learners make their choice when they arrive by moving their number. Right now, the spots are staying the same for a week. To transition from chairs into spots, I call out "smart spots", and they respond "activate". 📣 For a closer look at the menu, check out my stagnant post🌈📝."

Alana Sutherland | You CAN teach your child to read on Instagram: "What I’m doing differently…⤵️ First - SAVE THIS! This is a really fun and effective way to introduce suffixes to your child! Then hit follow for more best literacy practices 🙌🏻✨ Here’s the top 3 things I’m doing differently with my own kiddos compared to what parents are telling me (and having a harder time teaching their child to read & spell 😢) 1️⃣ emphasize spelling! Good spellers become good readers. Rather than teaching a child to read and then worry about spelling later, actually lead with spelling! Stop treating it as an after thought. ❤️ 2️⃣ Utilize multi-sensory learning whenever possible! Whether your child is just learning letters, learning to blend sounds or learning suffixes like my 7 year old is doi

Teaching To A Riot on Instagram: "First things first, I NEVER👉NEVER got triggered.  I don’t even get triggered by this behavior anymore because I deal with it so often. I know whatever happens is going to happen and I’ll deal with it.    Then I prioritize. The kids that are being safe aren’t my priority in highly volatile situations. If a student are getting really anxious I help them first. I ask can I help, what do you need. I reassure them that student x and y are being obnoxious but I’ll handle it. Sometimes they just want to step out, I say sure go ahead, go get a drink. Student laughing and fussing, I handle last.   I focus on the student who are in crisis. I prompt them to go for a walk, get an iPad, use whatever they need to chill out and take a breather... sometimes it they go

Navi | Math Activities on Instagram: "⬇️ If your child struggles with place value, try making it hands-on with this fun activity. ✂️ Cut out a small rectangle from a sheet of paper and make 3 vertical cuts that are equally spaced apart but not all the way through to the top. ✍🏽 Write a three digit number at the top of the rectangle and have your child use a single hole-puncher to punch out the number of holes that correspond to each digit. Next, have your child write each part of the expanded form of the original number in its designated space. 💡This simple set up, allows your child to see how the digits represent the number of units for each place value while writing the actual number underneath provides a visual for the numeric value of that particular position. ✅ Share this reel
