•McKay• on Instagram: "Bump It Up Wall✏️ This is an easy tool to give your students (especially the littles) a visual on how to improve their writing and illustrations. 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

Adulting Made Easy LLC | Fiona Gonzalez on Instagram: "📞Every moment is a learnable moment! Do you have your students answer the classroom phone? What might seem like a seamlessly simple task, can actually be pretty complicated for some of our students. This is the perfect way to practice scripted portions of a phone call, which then requires the student to act upon a request to either get a specific person, relay a message, or write down a message.

Shannon Olsen on Instagram: "This is GENIUS for helping students keep their desks more neat!!👌🏼 After teaching the expectations for desk organization, @keepingupwithmisscosides takes a picture of the inside of one of her student’s desks (one who has set a good example) and displays it as a visual reminder all year. This same template is in her TPT store! Now I just need a version of this for my own desk, which usually looks like a tornado hit it by the end of the day 😜 #teacherfollowfriday

Cloud dough (also known as moon sand) is a crumbly mixture but can be compressed and moulded- perfect for ice cream play!

To make cloud dough mix 4 cups of flour with 1/2 cup of vegetable oil. (If making large quantities like we did double that amount).

If you want to make different colours divide the batch up before grating coloured chalk into them. To make the chocolate one add a spoonful of cocoa powder instead.

As an optional extra we added coloured rice to make sprinkles. You could use real sprinkles instead!

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

Jen Foster | Primary Educator and Founder | Author on Instagram: "I had to stop the task. It was too loud. I was unfocused. It wasn’t good enough. And by good enough, I mean, I would be doing a disservice to the children if I let them carry on. Because it would have lowered the expectation and it would be communicating to them that I think it’s ok if they aren’t their best selves. So I stopped the task. This is how I move forward (Part 1). Firstly, I need to remove that chip on my shoulder 😂 it’s very easy to get grudgy or annoyed. Trust me. I was! But that has to be removed or dealt with personally. It’s got no business with the class because at that point it’s just me being cranky 😂. So here’s part 1. First, I got them to reflect on what had happened by using the missing gap. This supp

Shannon Olsen on Instagram: "Students LOVE playing Guess Who math games! They’re great for developing math vocabulary & higher level thinking for all sorts of math concepts. 

Perfect for math centers (or as a choice for early finishers) throughout the whole school year- just switch out the game board for different skills! 

In addition to this geometry game, I also have ones for:

✅ Place Value 
✅ Math Facts 
✅ Money 
✅ Telling Time 
✅ Geometry 
✅ Fractions 

Plus an editable version, to create your own games for any math skill. 

AND these favorite math games are now a whole lot easier to prep (for now, or for next school year)! 👏🏼

One entire sheet to slide into the game board…no more having to change out lots of little pieces each time 🙅🏻‍♀️❌ with the newest version.
