Checking Account System
Sample checks and checkbook register to record classroom incentives and consequence fines. Even with the debit card, learning to keep a checkbook register is an important life skill. It is a fun tool for practicing addition and subtraction of money. Can be used in a social studies unit on budgets or economy. We use it for the class store!

Poetry Workbook - Original Poems
Student workbook pages to create original works by each student in a variety of styles. Includes a cover and a vocabulary page with instructions on writing. Most workbook pages give directions on how to write a specific style of poem with an example included. The bio-poem is the exception as the format is so lengthy. The final page offers students the opportunity to create a poem in their favorite style.

Interesting Me . . .
Get to know your students on the first day of school. This interest inventory helps you learn about their interests for possible motivation and background knowledge. It also lets you know what resources are available at home as well as a preview of writing ability and attention to detail - if they can draw in detail, it helps them to write in detail.

Experience

Teaching style
I believe students learn best through guided discovery used often in small groups or partnerships where they are able to discuss and question their own understanding. Being able to talk with their peers before sharing their ideas and own understanding gives all students the opportunity to process what they are learning, change perspectives, and grow their understanding and confidence. Every classroom should be a safe place to make mistakes, so that mistakes become normalized and turned into a means to grow and shine.
