You tube is has something for everyone!

I was surfing around the net looking for cool stuff for my blog.  I found these two videos on you tube that I am going to try using these in the beginning of the school year.  I believe that my students would really enjoy them and I would be getting a message across at the same time!!  You know two birds with one stone kind of thing...

These videos will be great attention grabbers and conversation starters when I have each classroom help to create..

Rules to live by

 

Having the students help to create the rules for their class makes it easier for them to live by them.  I also have every student sign the bottom of the rules poster so that I can pull it back out and say, 'Look, _____________, you signed this saying that you were going to follow the rulers that YOU helped to create." 

 

Check out these videos!!  They are great!!
