Bloom’s
Taxonomy for Parents- has explanations that parents could understand for
the levels & some activities. This might help with continuing
learning at home- maybe with literacy?
This is an interesting article about how you might
be able to foster creative thinking by doing things differently. Their
example is pouring milk before cereal when making breakfast. Let your
kids see you doing things in different ways…maybe they’ll start seeing the
world + learning differently. J
I squirted two primary colors into each of the three Ziploc freezer bags, put a white piece of paper under them, and taped the whole thing down with painter's tape. Then I let the eager boys have at it!
This
site Freeology.com has all sorts of free
printables.
I
liked this one:
I thought this was a nice behavior tracker…kids start at the
middle and can see where they want to go-
…although I think I would chance the top one to Parent Contact,
too. Why not contact parents when kids are really great too? I bet
they’d love to hear that their child is amazing!
Along those same lines, you could cut 4 x 6 paper, have the kid
decorate one side about their accomplishment, and you could write on the back
and send it in the mail as a postcard to the parent.
Brown Bag Book Club…such a cute idea- grade level classes could
get together to discuss a book and snack on a healthy snack too (you can buy
plain popcorn & brown bags- just put the popcorn in the bag and microwave…no
need for oil or butter & is way cheaper than the ‘microwave popcorn’
(the info is…Title, Characters, Setting, Main Idea, Author’s
Purpose)
How cool is this? Brown Bag Book Club! Glue the graphic
organizer/response to the front of a lunch bag- after the students complete the
form and then get into the groups to discuss the book, fill the bags with
popcorn! Tasty fun!
Enjoy your weekend…
