I have to make my own student planners for this next school year. The building as a whole does not use them, nor do the other teachers at my grade level. I used them during my student teaching and really feel that they help. I viewed the MOOSE book links that I found in the archives, does anyone have any ideas or examples for students more on my grade level? I prepared a basic sheet to use everyday with assignment areas, behavior areas, and notes. I also have a weekly "How Did I Do?" sheet. Any other suggestions?
moose planners I also love the idea of the Moose planners. If you search, there is a webpage that has a list for other acronyms other than Moose. I cant remember where I saw it though. But it could fit into whatever theme you use in your classroom, if you use a theme. Here are some other ideas for your planners. ~ spelling or vocabulary lists. ~ a blank calendar for them to complete and add tests or special events to. ~ A clear pocket with a zipper for pens, markers, pencils, erasers ~ papers to return to school signed ~ papers to go home for parents to read I will post more if I think of them.
Thanks. Do you sent papers home every night? I was just going to do this once a week, except for items that needed to be corrected and signed.
organization I send home all of the kids papers on Fridays, to be signed and returned on Mondays. I would like to send all papers from the office home on Friday also, but our admin. prefers it to be sent out asap. here is one website that has alot of moose folder acronyms: http://www.teachingheart.net/moosebooks.html
