| Here is a look inside some of my students' desks. It is starting to drive me crazy so tomorrow we are cracking down and cleaning!!! |
| Their seat sack that is suppose to have their take home folder, agenda, reading book and NOTHING else. (The things they take home every night!) |
| :( |
| Come on! This is not a trash can! We are still working on putting our papers in our folder to take home. They wonder why they cannot find their pencils in this mess. |
To motivate my students to keep their desks clean we have a friend Lady the Lady Bug! She likes to find a clean desk to sleep in every night. We will see if she can find a place to rest tomorrow:) I'll keep you posted.
Meet Lady:

Good idea! So do they get a prize if Lady sleeps in their desk? Or is Lady sleeping in their desk the prize, when they come in and see she has visited them?
ReplyDeleteThere is a reason I teach rude and crude high school kids! They seem so much easier! Even with all their drama!! LL
What a great idea! It really does make me want to clean to see if she ends up in my desk :)
ReplyDeleteHow cute! Love you!
The prize is them having Lady in their desk when they come to school that morning. I think I'm also going to reward whole teams (4 students who sit together in a group) when the entire team has had Lady visit. I may give them a piece of candy or something and hope that the clean kiddos encourage the messy kiddos to clean their desks!
ReplyDeleteWe cleaned today:)
Much better!
THE FIRST SEMESTER IS ALMOST OVER AND YOU NEED TO POST SOME MORE BLOG POSTS! love ya!
