Idea 11: Beginning of the Year "I am" statement for writing notebooks
This would be such a cute first page in their writing notebooks. It'd be great for students to see themselves as multidimensional people and an easy way for them to get to know each other!
Idea Twelve: Clothespin revival
I've tried the push pin strategy with clothes pins, but I like this one for more permanent places:
Since I moved recently, I seem to have a plethora of extra command strips! I could easily decorate the clothespins to match my classroom colors (once I you know, determine those). Thanks Fifth in the Middle for the idea!
Idea Thirteen: Morning Memes
To be fair, this isn't entirely a new idea for next year. Last February, I started doing a morning meme to add some positivity in the morning. They were a great way to connect with students and reinforce various topics (rules, grammar, being nice, etc). The memes would inspire my students to talk with one another and start our day on a positive note.
I've been pinning ideas to my Pinterest morning meme board, which you can follow here!
What new ideas are you excited to try?
