"If you’re on your school’s PTA or PTO board, it’s a good idea to have a Teacher Survey to keep on file for each teacher for teacher appreciation events. It’s immensely helpful in choosing appropriate gifts for teachers on their birthdays and holidays. I adapted the survey when I was a room mom for my son’s first grade class to help the other parents choose gifts that the teacher would really appreciate and be able to use. You can print out the Teacher’s Favorite Things survey in the post and give it to the teacher(s) to be filled out."
Perfect public speaking rubric used for student presentations – specifically written for a speech that is 3-5 minutes in length. I have used this rubric in my own class - students and parents appreciate how clear and specific it is. We go over this rubric prior to their presentations, when they are still writing, so they have clear guidelines to follow. Can be used for any subject matter. The rubric focuses on the following: -fluency and clarity -Pace and Flow -Eye Contact -Posture -Enthusiasm -Length of Speech -Memorization
How do we raise a responsible child in an entitled world? When we tackle these 5 key areas, kids have a great shot at learning the joy of responsibility.
Even if we try to research in a deep manner that why our parents love us so much then too we might not find the true answer behind it.
The new Behavior Calendars are out and ready for the 2015-2016 school year! I figured there are teachers as crazy as me that want to start thinking ahead so that the summer is not overrun with things to do. The new behavior calendars work the same as the ones from last year. There are two versions, one with happy face, straight face and sad face. The other one is a color system with green, yellow and red. For those of you who do not know, these behavior calendars are the perfect addition to any classroom management system. You print one calendar per month per student, put it in their homework folder for the month, and have daily communication with parents on their child's behavior. It takes about 5 minutes a day to fill them out at the end of the school day and are so worth the time! My students know that they want to come home with a happy face. They also know that a note can and will be sent home with a straight face (I call it the "Uh-Oh Face") explaining their negative behavior. These notes are included in this pack from TpT. I have also included good notes home, because children NEED positive reinforcements that they can be proud to share with their parents. I hope you find these calendars as useful as I do. I could not teach without them. (Especially not KINDERGARTEN!!) To purchase this item or visit my store CLICK HERE.

Playdough has to be, by far, the most popular of my centres. BUT....I find that after about a week my playdough gets gross! Yuck! Our school gives us just a few tubs of Crayola playdough, certainly not enough to last us the whole year. First of all, this stuff is not easy to make at all! Second, it dries up within the week and makes crumbs EVERYWHERE. Who wants to play with old, dried out playdough? So that's when one of my teaching partners thought of the Playdough Club. It works like this... Parents can sign up to make playdough (totally voluntary and you wouldn't believe how many want to do it!). Those parents that participate make it about 3 times per year. That's it! I send out this note sometime during the first week of school. Click on the picture to download. ***NEW: Download your own EDITABLE version of this letter for FREE by clicking here.*** For those parents that become members of our Playdough Club, I make a schedule and send them this note. I usually get quite a few members so I am able to change my playdough weekly. Click on the picture to download. I have a fantastic Playdough Fun package on my TpT store if you want to check out great activities for this centre. If you have any questions about the Playdough Club, please let me know!

If you are reading this, you are probably either a school PTO leader, principal or room mom trying to figure out how to get more parents involved! Know this, you are not alone! Schools across the country struggle to get the participation that they want and need everyday! I've been there too. Here's the scenario... My son attended a middle school with approximately 700 kids that was in need of a PTO leader. Sure, why not! I love education, kids and planning so how bad could it be? Right?!?! Wrong! I almost immediately realized that getting people to actually come help with anything was difficult. Honestly, it felt impossible. I had a mini pity party and decided that wasn't going to cut it! These are good people that love their kids. I knew that! Now, I just needed to come up with how to get them involved! That leads me to the topic of this post! How to Increase Parent Engagement at Your School First and foremost, remember that you were willing to step up. Whether that was out of guilt, because there was no one else or you are part of an amazing school that has an active PTO, someone cares about the PTA group!
