Stuff Students Say and Other Classroom Treasures: Bucket Chairs and Fab Finds!

http://schenkgr4.blogspot.com/2012/08/bucket-chairs-and-fab-finds.html

Sunday, August 5, 2012. Bucket Chairs and Fab Finds! Hi all, I'm going to do a two-for-one linky party post- part Made-It-Monday, part Fab-Find-Friday. Made-It #1: I've been using these Ugly-But-Functional Lowes buckets for small group seating for the past two years- they're great because they have no legs (they can't get tangled together! And they're really easy to put up for vacuuming. Also, if necessary, you can cram more kids in at the table on buckets than on big, cumbersome chairs. 3 Sew and stuff-...

Stuff Students Say and Other Classroom Treasures: Rubrics for Projects! :)

http://schenkgr4.blogspot.com/2012/03/rubrics-for-projects.html

Thursday, March 15, 2012. This week, I've been working on creating some rubrics for grading some of the different projects I have my students complete. If any of you are making science lapbooks, the biography newspapers, or animal adaptations brochures, I have made some handy, dandy rubrics for all three. I use the different components in big projects like these for multiple grades in several subjects. If you're making science lapbooks, here's the link to my rubric:. September 11, 2015 at 12:20 AM.

Saturday, March 29, 2014. Testing Pep Rally: Five For Friday! Our principal had the awesome idea of having a state-testing pep rally!

Stuff Students Say and Other Classroom Treasures: Food Chain Pop-Up for Science Lapbooks

http://schenkgr4.blogspot.com/2012/04/food-chain-pop-up-for-science-lapbooks.html

Sunday, April 8, 2012. Food Chain Pop-Up for Science Lapbooks. I'm going to try to write one quick post a week. I accidentally committed myself to leading three big projects at work, so I'm feeling a little bogged down by all of that. THE FOOD CHAIN POP-UP! I think it's pretty cute. We already had glued this pop-up page into the life science lapbooks and I didn't know what I was going to do with it until five minutes before the science lesson. October 3, 2015 at 11:28 AM.

http://schenkgr4.blogspot.com/2014/01/best-bulletin-board-fonts.html

Friday, January 17, 2014. Best Bulletin Board Fonts! Happy three day weekend, everyone! It's time for another Five for Friday! Here are my five favorite things that happened this week:. 1 This was actually last Friday, one of my former students who is now in middle school came to school to visit me. After I greeted him, he held this bag out to me. I asked him what it was for, he said, "you! Kids these days. :-). They never cease to amaze me. And said it was like the denominator is ringing the doorbell!
