I'm excited to share my favorite posts of 2015 via Mrs. Beattie's Classroom and Years That Ask Questions
In no particular order.....
#1) Cell Phones in the Classroom: I love this post because it is the result of collaboration on the TpT forum. This is one of my favorite outcomes of TpT. In this post, I outline a successful implementation of teaching students self control with their cell phones.
#2) Stepping Out of the Comfort Zone: In this post, I talk about how I stepped out of my comfort zone for a lesson on transformations. I don't like to dance in front of others, and especially in front of those who will remember - aka students. However, I took a deep breath, and a plunge into the Uncomfortable Zone. My students are still talking about this lesson 3 months later. :)
#3) Catch Phrase in the Classroom: One of my favorite games to play at home is Catch Phrase. I was so excited when I figured out a way to incorporate it into my classroom. After running this game with my students, I realized so many more benefits than I had originally thought. This blog post outlines them all. This game is good for ALL subjects of ALL grade levels!!!
I hope you enjoy reading these as much as I've enjoyed writing them!
