Freebies & DIY

Hi Blog Friends! 

Here is a little freebie for you!  This summer I have been reading up on Whole Brain Teaching from Chris Biffle and I am so excited to use my own version of this in my classroom!  I will share my trials and tribulations with this as the year progresses!  If you click on the image below you can get my version of the rules posters and directions posters! 

I saw adorable absentee folders on Pinterest from Katie.

I had to create my own!  I bought sets of two folders at the Dollar Tree.  I designed these little labels, glued them on, and will laminate them at school.  When a student is absent I will put all missed work in here to send home (and hopefully... they return them!)   Click on either picture to download the freebie!

 

Last year in my room I didn't use mailboxes and found it very difficult!  I forgot :(  to put them on the list at school, so they weren't written in the budget.  I didn't want to spend money but knew I had to have them.  So of course... I created my own!  I used old priority mailboxes from the post office, duct tape, hot glue, construction paper, and labels.  Easy and they are so much cuter then if I or the school bought them!
