January 2016 Pick 3

New year, new resolutions. This year I resolve to interact more with other teacher bloggers. So to that end I am joining the Pick 3 Link Party. Here we go!

I love this idea about the growing door. I plan on starting something like this this semester. I usually have a thematic door that changes every unit, so I am thinking on the other side I could have the Graffiti Door. As for the books I have something similar going on next to the library but the book spines are much cuter so I am going to change my current look and go for the bookcase.

 

This next one I started doing the very next day. Though not exactly the same, I did start giving feedback on post-it notes. I also implemented a goal system for my kids. It has really helped get a better idea on what my students need work on. Sometimes with all my students it is hard to remember exactly who needs help with what, this way I know at a glance and can work with them better.

I am teaching the American Revolution later on this year so when I saw this post about teaching it I was like "I am totally doing that!" 

So there you have it. My three picks for January. Let me know what you think!
