I can not believe it's been a month since I last posted here! Things have been busy for sure.
I have been busy trying to clean out cupboards and reorganize math centres. Of course I ended up sick for about 5 weeks as well, so it was a struggle just to get through the day. This blog has definitely been neglected. I am currently watching for the plastic shoeboxes to go on sale, as I have figured out that I can stack two high in the Math area. I just need more containers to get everything into.
To keep some of my more messy kids organized, I have adopted a Desk Fairy this year. I found the printable on TPT and then bought some reward cards and printed those out too. The kids love it! They look every morning to see if the Desk Fairy visited the night before. She doesn't always come, but when she does, she leaves her card. The rewards vary from free time, to using a clip board, trading desks with a friend, etc. I try not to give candy ( I have some kids that don't react well to sugar), and my kids got a little too expectant with the prize jar. Every time they did something, they expected a prize for it. I'm trying these non-physical things to see how they work out. So far, so good.
I have been really happy with the products that I've been getting from TPT . I have bought a few centres packs and some other items and love it. Now I don't have to buy an expensive book for one or two things that I like, but I can download and print particular things instead. Love, love, love.
