Wax Museum and Leader In Me

Ok this has to be my new favorite project!! We had SO SO SO much fun working on the project and then the night of the Wax Museum was the BEST. We combined our Wax Museum with our Leader In Me Night and it was perfect. I'm so proud of all of my 5th grade babies! The project is on TPT if you are interested :)

#Goals

Is it just me or did 2016 fly by! We are off to a great start of 2017 with lots of fun things coming up! We have our Wax Museum on Feb. 16th along with our Leader In Me night! This is my first year to do a wax museum (except when I was in 3rd grade) and I am so pumped to see how it turns out! I just uploaded the project to TPT so if you are interested you can find it there!

We have been focusing on setting goals for ourselves for the rest of the school year. Yet again I was blown away by my kiddos! They make me so proud. I have added some of the awesome goals that they created. To make it even better is was a free download! Check it out herehttps://www.teacherspayteachers.com/FreeDownload/-goals-Student-Created-Goal-Setting-Sheet-2899674

We just added a #GOAL bulletin board outside of our classroom! It is awesome! I catch the kiddos rereading their goals as we walk past it, it helps to keep us all accountable to what we want to accomplish!

We are also focusing on kindness! We have started a challenge to complete 100 random acts of kindness between our 100th day of school and Valentines day! I can't wait to see how our classrooms transform as our kiddos focus on kindness!! They get a little heart to fill out each time they complete a kindness act, this is the before picture! I am so excited to see the after!!

Here are our kiddos working hard on Fact and Opinion, we changed up the scoot a little! We had so much fun checking out each others chins haha!
