Classroom Rules Freebie & 5 Minute Friday
Here is real life people…I am living in chaos right now. Last weekend, we moved our beds and clothes to our new house so we could stay there this week. We have been going back and forth throughout the week bringing over a carload of tubs each night.
This is my dining room right now.
We do have our beds, but yes, that is a card table chair that I’m currently using as my nightstand.
This is the living room…no furniture. We have nowhere to sit in our house yet. So, when I come home after school and my feet and legs are killing me because it’s the first week of school, I stand or sit on the floor.
It’ll get there, right?
Anyways, we did start school this week. It’s been a great first week. I moved schools this year so I’ve been trying to learn the ropes at my new school. I have gotten lost more than once and wandered down the wrong hall plenty of times.
I created these classroom rules posters for my classroom and wanted to share them with you.
Have you seen these story cubes? They are so much fun to use in a whole group setting, small groups, or even for individual students. I always start by rolling a couple of the dice and displaying them on my document camera. We work on creating a story orally using the pictures on the cubes first. Eventually, the students will be able to write their own stories using the pictures. They are just a great tool to have on hand if you find yourself with a couple extra minutes to spare.
well….. you have internet now, right!? woooosssaaaa…. deep breathing for you!! <3
Thanks for sharing! Lovely house!
It will all get sorted out – first on my list would be a couch to rest on!! Your house looks beautiful. 🙂
Oh Jodi! You need to rest girlie. Let everything stay in bins for now and take care of yourself. Your house is beautiful!

It is never easy is it? I'm praying things get smoother and more settled quickly for you! I am leaving Friday of the first week to move my baby girl into her first apartment as she starts her Junior year at Penn State! So we're right in the chaos with you!
I know you will get thru everything because your profession says you are strong!!! Your a TEACHER. 😉
I understand how you are feeling. I lived for almost 2 months with a cheap air mattress,1 chair and my laptop until I was able to move my things to the new city I moved to.
Hope your house is coming along – it WILL get there : )
Thanks so much for the class rules – they are adorable!!
