What teachers are saying…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “What a fantastic discovery! I had noticed in previous years many hiccups with the way students took ownership of using both classroom and school materials. This resource gave me a new chance to help students engage positively with both the expected routines and how to use materials in a more responsible manner. Thank you for making the beginning of my new year run so much more smoothly. The tools, lessons, and materials shared in this resource made it very engaging to introduce and use the various supplies we use together as a class on a daily basis. It is not just the teacher telling the students how to use the material, but it is a discussion, and students are given the opportunity to practice and reflect upon how they use the various materials in our class each day. ” - Yvonne C.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “As a first-year teacher, I wasn't sure how to encourage student ownership in our discussion of respectful use of classroom tools or how to help the concepts feel more concrete. Although I only used a fraction of the pages available in this resource, it was worth every penny for the opportunity it gave us right at the start to have clear and actionable discussions as a classroom community. I will definitely be using these again!” - Ariel P.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thanks so much for this product, I have never had a better start to the year after taking the time to review these classroom expectations--students are so respectful and responsible with our class tools! - Jennifer B.
