This weeks focus: try to recognize the positive behaviors 🧡

Every year it gets this way. January + February are long, cold & filled with indoor recess. We’ve got a whole lot of energy + I find myself having a little less patience 😳

1️⃣ I’m not a huge fan of behavior management systems but sometimes we just need to implement them for a few weeks. So we started our Class Kerplunk this week. Each time we do one of the things on the poster, students get to pull a stick out. I don’t know who’s original idea this was but I’ve done it for a few years! Helps me recognize the positive things happening in our classroom + the class will get a reward when all of the balls have fallen 🧡

2️⃣ One of our new end of the day routines a few days a week is a class shout out. Each Wednesday I will do class shout outs to recognize positive behaviors happening individually. The class list helps me remember to find positives in every student!

3️⃣ Students who get a shout out get to press the Hype Button while the class cheers + it just adds a bit of fun! 📣

Save this post for when you are feeling the same way as me with a bit of a thin patience ☺️

You made it through the week! Cheers to the long weekend! 🎉

I’m looking forward to spending time with my mom this weekend, getting new arrivals ready for @shopsimplylovely + having no specific agenda whatsoever! 🧡

What are your weekend plans? Let me know below + I’ll choose a few of you to send a little Starbucks treat for you to enjoy this weekend! ☕️

THIS book! 🙌🏼 I am so incredibly proud + excited for @thetututeacher !

From the most beautiful illustrations, to the consistent message that teaches young readers to have a voice, speak up and be strong when they see or face inequalities and injustices.

This is the perfect book to share with students of all ages to begin the conversation + to show students that no matter how young, they can have a voice. I can’t wait to share it with my students! 🧡

You Have a Voice comes out on January 20th but you can pre-order yours anytime before then from Amazon!

…And when I say you CAN I mean you SHOULD, because every classroom needs this book!

Anyone else need a little perseverance to get through your first week back? 🙋🏼‍♀️

Swipe to see a little random peek inside our first week back from break:

• After revisiting expectations with the book “I Promise” my students chose the word perseverance to be our “Class Word” for the new year! Students were paired up + each pair decorated a letter while adding how they were going to persevere this year.

• We did a giant word find as one of our New Years challenges, always one of my favorite activities!

• More or less: we came up with a list of things we wanted to do more of and less of. Fort reading made me giggle but it was a great way to have conversations around things they want/need in the day 🧡

• Worked on making inferences with some good books, picture of the day + some detective activities. 📚

• Celebrated the new year by making our water bottles that we were supposed to make before break! ✨

I hope you had a few positive moments in your first week back even with the sub shortages, rising cases & indoor recess. Enjoy your weekend doing something for YOU! 🧡

Happy Holidays from the Wasiks 🧡 Our Christmas

Happy Holidays from the Wasiks 🧡

Our Christmas card was sent out late so it only feels fitting to post a late Holiday photo here as well🤣

Wishing all of you a relaxing + joyous holiday break! 🎄We are spending a little time off the grid at the cabin to close out 2021! ✨
