Think Happy Thoughts

Have you checked out technology rocks. seriously. ???
If you haven't, then you SERIOUSLY need to do so.
Shannon has made some  amazing inspirational signs. They bring some color to my classroom, AND the kids love them. See the picture below:

I even was able to use them in a class meeting. We talked about each of the posters in the room. Each has a different positive or inspirational message. We talked together about what the quotes meant and how they relate to our lives. I had each of my students pick a quote that resonated with them. They wrote the quotes into the front cover of their agendas. It was amazing how true to character some of the quotes were to each child. They really did a great job picking a saying that would really benefit them in the classroom. If I would have thought about it earlier, I would have taken pictures of their journals ... something to do next week!
So, bottom line? If you haven't check it out... GO! :)

    1. Ok, now you'll have to inform me of what a button is!! I'm still new to some of these blog things and terms. I've seen buttons on people's pages, but never knew how they made them or put them there.
