Today I am so excited to talk about one of my favorite topics:CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT! I have said it before, classroom management was something I worked REALLY hard on over the years. One year I had the worst year of my life when it came to teaching and I vowed to never let it happen again. […]
Teacher, passionate about culture and history. I am a native of Montpellier, who loves his city, who knows its history and every nook and cranny. I propose you a visit which will allow you to catch the atmosphere, the evolution and the history of Montpellier "the Surdouée". The Tour I propose combines the architectural modernity of the new neighborhoods and the authenticity of the medieval historic center (l'Écusson). Montpellier has many architectural, religious, academic, historical buildings sometimes millennia, often centuries.As a memorable souvenir of this visit, I will immortalize your stay in Montpellier with professional photo portraits with the beautiful little historic streets of the city.Take comfortable shoes and, if necessary, something to drink.Each participant will be given a link to a private gallery online to download his Ultra HD portraits.

French long-range planning At the beginning of the school year, your administrator will often ask for a copy of your long-range plans to keep on file. You will also want to place a copy of these in your teacher binder and your emergency binder (in case something happens and you need a longer-term replacement.) For teachers new to creating long-range plans, it can be confusing to understand exactly what to include. Below, I list what you should include in those plans. It will take some extra work and time, but remember that the plans are going to help make planning easier throughout the rest of the school year. When creating your plans, make a table with the following 4 columns: 1.Months of the school year (create a row for each month) 2.Curriculum expectations 3.Themes 4.Resources In each monthly row, you will add the following: Curriculum Expectations Here, you will list the specific curriculum expectations that you are planning to focus on each month. Refer to your government curriculum documents for the grade(s) that you are teaching and include those expectations. Themes In this column, you will add the themes and tasks that you are planning on covering each month. For example, the first month may include: -Personal introductions, greetings and farewells -Classroom phrases -Letters of the alphabet -Vocabulary related to: colours, numbers 0-31, the calendar, 2D shapes -Vocabulary related to school supplies, classroom furniture Resources If there are specific resources that you know you are going to use to cover the curriculum expectations or themes, you will list them here. Are you teaching core French inOntario? I have a (set of pre-made print and go!) long-range plans available in my TPT store. This resource contains over 100 pages of French Long- Range Plans and planning tools for Core French grades 4, 5 & 6 using the Ontario French as a Second Language Curriculum. Ready-made Core French Long-Range Plans for Ontario Teachers The planning document is provided in a non-editable PDF format so that links are easily clickable. With your download, you will also receive a second editable PowerPoint file which you can easily adjust to suit your needs and submit to your administration at the beginning of the year. This second file contains the Core French Long-Range Plans ‘at-a-glance’ for your teacher binder or administrative purposes. Use the detailed monthly plans to guide your own French planning. Each month lists a number of lesson goals, activities and assessments and pairs them with the curriculum expectations. You will also receive links to suggested videos, web pages and resources (free and paid) related to the lessons to use with your students. While the additional resources were selected to compliment the themes used in the plans, they are not required to use this document. Visit my TPT shop HERE to check out a detailed preview!

I'm taking a break from cutting out library labels to link up with adorable Cara and share my favorite pins from this week! first is a home with the boys pin. I love this idea from The Modern Teacher {she is ah-mazing btw} for the week before going back to school. My up and coming third grader loves school supplies almost as much as his momma! I have been hoarding away some cute notebooks and things for him! I am planning on recovering my ugly burgundy office chair I use at school. I have the fabric to cover it {and those crate seats I was going to do LAST summer} I just need to figure out how to get it apart! and I cannot trace this pin back... I adore this little video clip of Rupert Grint and Emma Watson. Looks like a match made in heaven! and here's something I want to do at Open House! Do the math to find your seat, but I want to use it to find their "number" for cubbies and desks, etc. this is another pin that leads to nowhere though... I love this sight word money from the Moffat Girls. Annie is a doll! and so is here stuff! These are on my B2S list! and here's what I have spent every morning this week doing! I added contact paper to the back inside of my built-ins. If they weren't built in I'd spray paint those bad boys! I got all my craft supplies into 6 modular shelves from Walmart. I still have more organizing to do in this closet! and here's my nonfiction section. I also need to recover that chair. It was a throw away I snagged. and those frames will frame something! I still have to attach all the labels to the book boxes. I ordered new boxes at the end of school, so I need to add my new ones. I used the editable Bright and Clear from Kristen. I really ended up using the blank template more than anything! I get a little specific with my labels! Luckily she thought about that ahead of time! I wrote down each genre and box number so I could work on them at home. and I got one on today. I sure didn't realize they were this big, but it'll work! I will not let it bother me. No.I.won't. The stickers are probably the only thing I still hand write in my classroom! I have 43 full boxes and I will not be tackling renumbering all those books. Never, Like ever! aren't those labels cute! they are her best seller! happy friday! I will link up with Kristen and Elizabeth tomorrow to share more about our library! and one more itty bitty thing... check out this awesome giveaway at Farley's place! I you could win $100 at School Outfitters!
I mean...why WOULDN'T you use cootie catchers in your reading block? It makes perfect sense. Ok - remember last week how I was talking about doing a little spring cleaning with some of my TpT resources? Well, I did a little spring cleaning in my file folders on my computer as well. Yikes. Now THAT'S a bit of a rabbit hole. I got in a little deeper than I wanted to, but I figured I might as well finish the job. I got rid of a lot (a LOT) of cringe worthy products that just didn't make the cut anymore, and I got some major organizing done as well. BUT - you know what I found? THIS >>> It's a reading comprehension cootie catcher that I TOTALLY forgot I made! And since it resurfaced for me - I thought I'd resurface it for you! I'm sure I made it for you guys in the first place, but I can't for the life of me find it anywhere on the blog. There's actually 3 different versions. They have different comprehension questions that can be used with any fictional book. They work great as a quick partner review game. You can download them here!
