I came up with an idea for my box from last week's Monday Made It. I am going to have my students perform a random act of kindness each day. I figure each day we will pull one of the cards out of the box and each student has to perform that act of kindness. I'm hoping this will help create a climate of respect.
I have seen these class journals all over the place and decided to use them this year. I am going to write one sample in each journal so students have an idea of my expectations. The topics are: My Weekend, Hobbies, Vacations, Sports, Birthdays, Wishes, Sickness, and Giggles. The graphics I used for these came from My Cute Graphics. This is my go to site, I adore their graphics.
The last thing I am sharing is my check for understanding posters. I know I found this idea somewhere, but it was awhile ago so I don't remember. I know the colors didn't match my theme of shades of blue so I created my own. The graphics for the children came from Clips by Jen. The blue border can be found here. The chalk star can be found here.
Thanks for stopping by. Head over to 4th Grade Frolic to check out what others have made and to link up with Tara. Enjoy!
I want to give book boxes too - but I don't have very much room in my new classroom. Hmmm...

I'm wondering the same thing. Last year I had a lot of shelf space, but this year I'll have to get creative.
DeleteLove the book boxes and those class journals are too cool! Great projects...:)

I decorated some of the same boxes from IKEA a couple of weeks ago for my MondayMadeIt! They are so much cuter decorated!
