Comment POP to get this FREE balloon countdown to summer activity! One of my favorite end of the school year activities to do — It’s such a fun way to celebrate during my the last two weeks of school and to give students something to look forward to each day.

It’s that time of year… after spring break, we can start to see behaviors start sliding backwards‼️don’t wait to address it - here are some quick fixes that will get things back on track in no time.
✨Review old expectations, but in a new way - turn it into a game or an activity or an interactive anchor chart!
✨Have the whole class practice - if there are times of day that are especially challenging, practice these routines as a whole class.
✨New visuals - having a visual reminder can help students remember what they should be doing. You can even make these for individual students who need extra support
✨Focus on the positive - the more you notice and energize the things going right in your classroom, the more students will see that as the way to get your energy and attention
✨Set some goals - if you have individual students who are really struggling, a daily or weekly sticker chart can help them stay motivated to make good choices.
