I have been in the field of education for 27 years. I love what I do everyday; it is truly a passion and I can not imagine doing anything else! In 2013, I retired as the gifted, special services, and elementary curriculum director for a public school district! I design curricular materials anywhere from Pre-K to 8th grade, and I must say I am partial to classroom/behavior management and English Language Arts.

March Middle and High School School-Wide and Classroom Incentives

(0)
I am hoping this resource will be most helpful to all of you! This is a set of incentives and reward coupons specifically for middle and high school students. For example, some of the rewards and incentives include: (1) being able to work in the front office for one class period; (2) gaining free admission to one ballgame; (3) earning the opportunity for you, as the teacher, to write a postcard to the students parents with a positive note in regards to the student, and many, many others. Many students need that extra boost just for someone to notice that they have done the right thing. Obviously, we all strive for our students to be able to self-regulate their behavior and ultimately that is our goal in using incentives and coupons that we can get to the point where external motivators are not needed! These incentives carry a March theme; however, there are others available for other months throughout the school year! Use these these incentives and rewards to help motivate students in your classroom. They can be laminated, cut apart, and placed in a storage container for safe keeping. There are hundreds of different ways for you to establish a management system for how a student will earn one of these so that is your task! There are seventeen different pages of incentives and rewards, and each page contains approximately 6-9 coupons/incentives on each page!

Writing: The Lighting of the Rockefeller Christmas Tree and the RAFT Strategy

Writing: The Lighting of the Rockefeller Christmas Tree and the RAFT Strategy

(0)
The RAFT strategy is a great strategy for being able to differentiate instruction in terms of content, process, and product. It is that time of the year again in terms of viewing the infamous lighting of the Rockefeller Christmas Tree in New York City. But, have your students ever investigated the process of how that huge tree actually gets to its final destination? Have your students traced the history of how this celebration and tradition originated in the first place? Have your students investigated the history of the ornaments on the tree? What about the history of the lights on the tree? Have they determined how November 30th is celebrated in terms of “lighting” the tree? This is an awesome opportunity to explore all of the answers to these questions through using such strategies as jigsaw, discussion, inquiry, and discovery. Then, after this portion of the teaching and learning sequence has taken place, students can take part in the RAFT activity where they get to make a choice in each column of the activity. For example, students might choose to write from the perspective of the Christmas tree itself and write to the farm from which the tree has been growing all of these years prior to it being cut. The writing might be in the form of a narrative piece of writing where the tree tells the story of growing up on the farm all of those years and how he/she might have longed to become the famous tree in Rockefeller Center one day. The tree might narrate his/her journey all the way to the final destination and the lighting on November 30th. This is only one example. Of course, there are many, many other options, and many other opportunities for mini-lessons along the way!
