Motivational Techniques

I made these reward coupons at the beginning to control their conduct and reinforce good behavior. You can download a free copy here: Download

First week of practice, to remember my students' names.

Star Track that measured the students if they raised their hands to answer, spoke English, remained in their seats, did homework, followed instructions, and worked quietly.

I made this but took the idea from Pinterest. It was to control the students voice level.

My First wall Display that fell like 78 times.

Classroom decorations

Our cooperating teacher Gina already had a Christmas tree. Between all three we decorated it. My mom was the one to help me wrap the boxes. Students were so curious to know why was inside, but they were actually empty. 

This is one of my favorites! The fireplace. This was made bye, Jailene and Luis. Luis was the one to do that awesome fire and woods in the middle.

Me and jailene made this from an idea from Pinterest. Super cute!☺

Someone gave me these posters with the book donations they have me. I thought it was perfect to put up in the classroom walls and promote the core dispositions, mainly leadership, diversity and social transformation.

Thanksgiving week

Thankful Turkey Activity in Class

In class, every student had te chance to say why they were thankful for. Each time they said something, I'd write it on the board. When we had about 16 reasons, I gave them a turkey worksheet where try had to write down 6 reasons why they were thankful, then cut the turkey and paste the feathers. As homework, students had to share their turkey with someone in their family they love and appreciate and are thankful for.

As a closing activity befor we left our practice center, we threw a little party for our students. Since me and Jailene give third grade, we decided to unite both groups in order to have the party. We both pitched in for snacks and drinks. We also put Christmas music and the students went wild singing to the national children's anthem, Let It Go from the movie Frozen.
