QR Codes

Image
I am going to share some fun ideas for how I have used QR codes in the classroom.  If you haven't heard of them before, please Google for the actual definition.  That's not nearly as much fun as just getting to the good stuff.  I use QR STUFF to make all my QR codes. Step 1:  Select PLAIN TEXT  Step 2:  Type your text in the CONTENT box (this is what will be revealed when you scan the code) Step 3:  Download the code (under the picture of the QR code) Step 4:  Copy and paste the code into a Word document for printing (you may want to write out your questions and answers first because you can't print them from this site) Good?  It is actually pretty easy.  Okay, next.... I only have ONE iPad for my class.  Yes, it is my personal iPad, but the kids are respectful with it because they know I will not let them use it if they are not.  So this particular game is QR tic-ta...

TAG! You're It! Writing

Image
I saw a wonderful idea for writing on Pinterest - shared writing journals.  So I bought some journals and put topic covers on them, which I got from some wonderful blog that I can't remember.  The only name attached to the file was Megan.  So if you are Megan, thank you for sharing your journal covers.  They are great!   Here are the materials I used to make the journals and the holder for them.  That is what the iced coffee box is for.  Once you get to know me, you will quickly see that I love iced coffee!  While I like the idea, I couldn't figure out how to correct them for the individual student when everyone in the class would be writing in the same journal.  Solution - TAG!  Of course this is another idea I saw on Pinterest.  I retyped it to match my center and created a TAG! sheet to go with the sign.  The gist is that the students will write in the journal during centers, read another studen...

Wonderful Tickets!

Image
I got this idea from my son's second grade teacher.  I put my own spin on it from some ideas I saw on Pinterest.  During the week, students may earn Wonderful Tickets for whatever you want to reward them for.  It could be that he gave a wonderful answer, showed kind deeds towards a classmate, did exceptionally well on an assignment, followed directions...you get the point.  So at the time you award the ticket, the student will write their name on it and drop it in the barrel.  I use a large clear Cheetos Ball container I got from Sam's Club.  Then anytime throughout the week that you need to encourage good behavior, draw a couple of tickets and allow those students to mark one of the rewards on the back.  You collect and throw it away once the reward has been redeemed.  Click the picture to download the Wonderful Tickets.  I plan to post the mini award posters soon, so check back.  Hope you find this useful.
