Do you put up a daily schedule? I didn't used to, then I inherited some cute cards from my dear friend Barb, and I was hooked. My kiddos walk in first thing and check out their day. I love hearing them read {We're first grade so this is a big deal!!!!} it and either get excited for something {Yeah, we're doing Daily 5...melt. my. heart} or {Boo, we're doing handwriting...stop your complainin'}.
As the years go by, my cards don't quite match my day all that well - I've downloaded lots of different schedules from my bloggy friends, but there are always those few missing parts, so I found myself writing them in on my whiteboard. I decided to create my own so I could finally have a complete set. I'm posting them here for you to grab if you should so desire. Maybe they can work for you. I've included a few "blank" cards to write in those parts of your day that are unique to your classroom.
I print, laminate, cut and put magnet strips on mine. They fit nicely in a pencil holder like this:
Then I put them on our front whiteboard for the kids to check out our day. They are nice and big so the kids can see them easily from their seats. Hope you can use them!
