My Project
Students will use these folders to pick and choose what assignments that need to be completed in class.
Students will use these folders during activity center time for early finishers.
They will use the red folders for make up work. I will place lessons in the folders daily and the students will get to choose which activities they want to do for the day by picking between 3 to 4 activities or lessons. these folders will help students stay on track and establish independent learning and not missing any assignments. These folders will also be used to take home if needed if they are missing assignments.
The folders will contain red yellow, green and blue labels on the front I will also have a catch-up area that the students will be able to catch up on missing assignments inside. The folders will contain directions on what they need to be done to complete their work independently. Many students will be encouraged to complete work independently and place the folder back into the correct color tub. These folders will help keep our classroom, organized and run smoothly for classroom management.
