Our first read aloud for the year. The first ten minutes of class has so easily become my favorite. My students enjoy it so much, three of them have checked this out for themselves in the library. Every single read aloud ends with a “MORE PLEASE!” I’m keeping up with reading ahead by reading it to my own children at night. If you haven’t read this, it’s so cute! #lovereading

I took this picture on day 1. Today was day 7 and my class has earned their class goal check for every day. I made them a deal. When we’ve reached 100 goal points altogether, we’ll spin this wheel! We get compliments almost every time we venture out into the hallway they’re so motivated and the prizes they chose to fill this wheel in with are so simple! #easypeasy #teachertips #classroomideas #behaviormanagement #teachersofig #teachersofinstagram #teachersofthegram #teachersfollowteachers #5thgradecollaborate #iteach #classroommanagement

These anchor charts are quickly becoming a go-to resource for my students as we practice in small group and independently. I even sent a copy home as reference for vocabulary to prepare for our unit test at the end of this week! Grab them in my TPT shop for upper elementary reading! #timesaver #lifesaver #anchorcharts #printandgo #teachersofig #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #teachers #teacherspayteachers #iteachfifth #readingteacher

How we start our day in the classroom. I call this our “Make Today Matter” journal or our “Grateful, Growing, and Glowing” journal. For now, the class fills it in together every morning and afternoon. Soon, each student will have their own. This has been a great way to set the tone of positivity and purpose for the day! #morningmindset #maketodaymatter #gratefulandgrowing #teachersofig #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #teacher #teachers #iteach #iteachwhatmatters #iteachfifth #morningmeeting
