AW Classroom

Each day of the year had numerous holidays. We all know about the federally recognized holidays, but what about the fun and quirky holidays? This writing exercise includes an interesting holiday with a writing prompt for each school day of April 2021.

I use this monthly budget planner to estimate and track my finances each month. Categories can be changed to better fit your needs. The algorithm is set up to calculate each category for total income, total expenses, and remaining balance. Students can use this planner to learn how to create a budget. This planner can also be edited to track your classroom expenses.

I use this game to prepare my 5th and 6th graders to be tested on place value. There are five categories with point values ranging from 100 points to 500 points. First, divide the class/group into teams. Teams will take turns choosing a category and point value. Once the question has been answered click the bottom right corner to return to the main screen. Then click the top left corner of the point value box to remove it from the screen.

This chart can be used to help students track their behavior. I currently use it with an Autistic student. If they had a good class period, then they place a sticker in the corresponding box. At the end of the week, I reward a full row of stickers with a trip to the treasure chest. At the end of the month, I make a copy for my records, then send the chart home to the parents. Class periods can be changed as needed.

I place these on white boards around the classroom labelled with my students' names.

Great for reading centers or quick phonics practice. Students will roll a die and move their place marker accordingly. They will then read the word they landed on. If they read it correctly, they may write it on their score sheet. If they land on a space other than a word, they do as the space says. Words listed on the game board may be changed to work other needs such as vocabulary words. Other supplies needed: One die per student One place marker for each student.

A calendar with a writing prompt for each day of May 2019. Supplemental prompts may be needed for school years extending past May 16th.
