Bring on the Firsties

Here are some photos of my classroom the day before school started.

Since I have tables, I needed a place to house each table's pencil boxes, Everyday Math & Words Their Way Journals, and slates and math tool kits.

I printed the first letter of each student's name, which is shaped like an animal, and had them color when they came in on the first day.

I named each table with money: Pennies, Nickels, Dimes, & Quarters.

I have integrity!

I did the right thing at the right time.

Incentive charts - Once they fill up a chart, they may choose a behavior coupon to cash in on Fridays.
