Cardboard Challenge Day is by far the BEST day of the year for so many awesome reasons. Basically, kiddos have 2 weeks to create a cardboard arcade game using what they know about force and motion.

Are Parent Volunteers Too Much Work?
I’ve spent several years at Title I schools where parent volunteers were few and far between and I’ve also spent my time where I had so many parent volunteers I just didn’t know what to do with! Parent volunteers can be work, but it doesn’t have to be with these easy tips! I blogged over […]
Organize math centers in your classroom
I created a Math Station area where all of our manipulatives, tools, and games are stored. You can organize math centers, too! It’s great because when students are finished in my class, they know to leave the assignment on their desk since we’ll be grading it together as a class, and go work on something […]

But…I have seen how it can be a useful platform if it’s used correctly. So heck, I’m going to do my best! I […]
Bulletin Boards
I’m excited to be teaming up with some of my friends to talk to you about bulletin boards. Some may disagree, but I really think bulletin boards can set the tone and theme of your classroom. Noone wants to come in and look at some haphazardly bulletin board with some faded paper thrown up with […]
My Future’s So Bright, I Have to Wear Shades Craftivity {FREEBIE}
Are you looking for a fun way to spruce up your bare bulletin boards at the beginning of the year? At the beginning of the year, it’s essential to set a positive tone, right away. I love to do that in many ways. One of my favorite ways is to take a photo of kiddos […]
