Classroom Tools

Pin It
Teaching is a job always just short of perfection! There's a perpetual door to the room labeled "Improvement- Under Construction." However, our profession builds hope at the end of each year. Fall is the new spring. Everything is reborn fresh.
"Next year, I'm really going to be organized!" or "Next year, I'll get a handle on behavior!" are the rally cries of continued enthusiasm.
Here are some resources for my current ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT folder:
  • Foldables - I'm going to get back into these this year. They use less copies because students use regular notebook paper or copy paper for most of them. The Center for Math and Science WIKI gave me tons of great templates and ideas for foldables and graphic organizers by categories.
  • Behavior Management: Class DOJO is a behavior management system. Very easy to use. Colorful and interesting for students. APP available to update from your phone. Avatars can be customized with your own photos. You can mark attendance (great for the morning entrance SmartBoard activity) and award points.

Also, check out all the math games and interactives at Fuel the Brain including hundreds board activities, money, base-ten blocks, customizable number line, and a global weather center!
These links will be added to Edujourney's teacher page!
